Luuk De Jong 'dreams' of Bayern switch
The young Netherlands international has made no secret of his desire to play for the German giants one day, as he prepares for an influx of offers come his way this summer
Luuk de Jong has confessed that it would be a dream come true if he were to complete a move to Bayern Munich this summer.
The 21-year-old was in scintillating form for Twente during 2011-12, scoring 25 goals in the Eredivisie to help his side claim a top-six finish and book a place in Netherlands' 23-man squad for Euro 2012.
Now currently preparing to make his bow at this summer's European Championship, De Jong admits the idea of plying his trade at the Allianz Arena represents a cherished ambition of his.
"Bayern Munich are a fantastic club. It is my dream to one day play for them," De Jong told Bild.
Bayern's pursuit of a new striker has been widely documented, following their disappointment in the Bundesliga and the Champions League final.
Goal.com exclusively revealed on Tuesday that De Jong tops Bayern's wishlist this summer, along with Emirates Marketing Project's Edin Dzeko, who they are purported to have enquired about.
Nonetheless, De Jong insists he is not feeling pressured by mounting interest from other clubs, as he explained he will evaluate a possible departure only if he is presented with an offer.
"I know there are a number of clubs interested in me," he added. "I have a three-year contract in Enschede, but if an interesting offer comes then I will certainly think about it."
De Jong will be vying for a place in attack when Netherlands kick off their Euro 2012 campaign against 1992 winners Denmark on June 9.

a pi$$ed off Lukaku.....
Romelu Lukaku felt no joy at Chelsea's Champions League win
Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has said he can take no satisfaction in his club's Champions League and FA Cup triumphs because he did not play a significant part in them.
The Belgium international joined Chelsea from Anderlecht in August for ?ú20m but has made just four starts.
The 19-year-old also admitted he could be forced out on loan next season.
"I don't like people talking to me about the Champions League. It wasn't me, but my team that won," he said.
"When [Salomon] Kalou put the cup on my lap in the bus I asked him to take it away immediately. I didn't want to touch it because just as with the Champions League I had no part in it at all," he told De Standaard newspaper.
"Chelsea really wanted me last summer and paid a lot for me but after a while I thought, are you just throwing money around?"
Lukaku, who is yet to score for the Blues, will seek talks with the new Chelsea boss before deciding on his future.
"During the conversation with the manager I will see whether he's serious about me or not. If not, I will go away on loan. I have to play," he added

Goodbye Swansea.
why?
Jones was assistant to Martinez at Swansea, has been assistant to Martinez at Wigan, who knows it could prove to be a clever choice
If he knows the system well and the players know him well then they should be fine.
The medical is today, provided he's been allowed to leave the Belgian camp. I don't expect any announcement till next week.

7m euro for Affelay.
