Arjen Robben has revealed that Tottenham are interested in bringing him to north London. The Dutch winger admitted during the Spanish club's tour of Ireland that Spurs have made enquiries about taking him back to the Premier League. Robben, whose agent is his father Hans, said: 'I have heardof their interest and my dad has had some contact with Spurs and theyare a great club but at the moment I am happy at Madrid and I will staythere.' Real would be prepared to let Robben leave, according to a report in the Telegraph, but the player has left the door open for a move to England. He said: 'I think I will stay but nothing is always a 100 per cent sure.' During his three years with Chelsea under Jose Mourinho, Robben helped the Blues to two league titles, an FA Cup and two League Cups, before his move to Real in 2007. Reports in Spain have also claimed Tottenham are now competing with the German club Stuttgart to sign Real's Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, with the player said to favour a move to England.
