Germany international midfielder Lewis Holtby is considering offers from English clubs as his contract at Schalke nears expiry.

The 22-year-old - who has an English father and grew up supporting Everton - sees his current deal expire next summer and is free to sign a pre-contract deal from January.

Liverpool and Arsenal are known to be courting Holtby's signature and his agent Markus Noack has revealed that he has offers from the Premier League.

'Lewis is very good at Schalke but above all there is an English club which has made a very interesting proposal,' Noack told calciomercato.com.

Holtby, who starred as Schalke won 2-0 at Arsenal in a Champions League tie last week, has also attracted interest from Inter but could yet remain at Schalke.

'We are talking with Schalke about a possible extension for another three years,' Noack added.

'Talks are going well at the moment but the situation has definitely changed in the last period because several offers from Spain and England came in.

'My client will have to decide whether to continue to grow in Germany or to try a new experience at the end of this season.

'Inter Milan? We have not received any proposals from Italy and he would prefer [to play in] the Premier League and La Liga.'

Great talent, but our midfield has talent in abundance yet, with Shelvey, Sahin and Stevie G as offensive midfielders. It depends on what will be the choices taken by BR, the money available and Holty's opportunities...
