Ferber told Sport.co.uk in an exclusive interview:
“The situation is that Serdar (Tasci) is aware of the interest from the Premier League, and he is eager to play in England at some point during his career. However he will not make a decision on his future until after the World Cup as that is more important at the moment. But, he is a fan of the Premier League and the football played in England.”
Ferber admitted that Tasci would be open to a move to either interested party of Tottenham Hotspur or Arsenal. He said:
“Serdar respects both clubs as two of the biggest clubs in the Premier League and in Europe. He would love to play for such a well-supported club. Also he is a fan of Arsène Wenger, the work he has done, and has great respect for him.”

According to German reports, the 23-year-old has been valued by Stuttgart at €15-20 million.
Tasci, who has also been linked with Juventus, had repeatedly expressed the goal of "playing for a top side abroad."
He is a very talented defender, who can play on the right flank, as well as at centre-half. He is tough, quick, has good technique and has the potential to reach the very top.
