Johnny Heitinga 300
JOHN HEITINGA has further risked the wrath of David Moyes by declaring he would be interested in joining Bayern Munich.
Heitinga’s long-term Goodison future is in doubt with the Dutchman having fallen out of favour with Moyes following a succession of indifferent displays this season.
Since returning from World Cup duty with Holland in the summer, the 26-year-old has started only four games and is yet to complete a full 90 minutes in the Premier League.
It has prompted rumours of interest from abroad, with German duo Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich both contemplating bids for the 27-year-old in the New Year.
And having worked with Bayern coach Louis van Gaal when at Ajax in 2004, Heitinga would welcome the chance of a move to last season’s Champions League finalists.
“It’s hard for me to say how serious the reported interest is at the moment,” said Heitinga.
“I know that Bayern haven’t approached Everton yet and they haven’t contacted me either.
