Arsenal and Chelsea have been put on red alert after Klaas-Jan Huntelaar's agent confirmed the striker is pondering his next move.

The 29-year-old is one of the hottest strikers in Europe after firing home 46 goals for Schalke last season while he has also hit the ground running in this campaign with eight in 15.

Huntelaar is due to fall out of contract in the summer and there is every chance he could leave in January for £7million as Schalke look to recoup some cash.

The Dutch international's agent has not ruled out the possibility of him staying where he is but admits there are plenty of options available to him, with Liverpool also keen.

"Klaas has not decided," he revealed. "He's had offers from England, Italy and Spain. It's also possible he could stay in Germany. He wants his future planned by the winter.

"In the next 45 days he wants to know his next project and it will be decided by his football ambitions and not by money. His dream is to fight to win titles in Europe and to have chances to be successful, because today he is one of the best strikers in Europe."
