Rafael van der Vaart will "probably" remain a Tottenham Hotspur player

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Rafael van der Vaart has revealed that he will "probably" be at White Hart Lane for the new season.

The Netherlands international has been linked with a switch away from the North London outfit, with Hamburg emerging as the likely destination for the 29-year-old.

"It's unbelievable how my name is speculated around Europe," Van der Vaart told Bild. "I can only say these are only speculations. I will probably stay at Tottenham."

Despite Van der Vaart's claims, reports have indicated that the Premier League outfit are prepared to sell the playmaker.
