Bournemouth Ace David Brooks admits he wants to play at the top level leaving the Premier League big guns on alert.
The 21-year old attacking midfielder this week beat Gareth Bale to the Wales Player of the year award as well as picking up the Young Player award following a great season for club and country.
Tottenham and Arsenal have shown their interest in Brooks with a potential £40million move being reported by The Sun.
Earlier this month, the Bournemouth star admitted he is happy at the club after signing a contract extension keeping him with the Cherries until 2022.
But does Brooks want to follow in international teammate Gareth Bale’s footsteps and play at the very top.
He stated: “I want to play at the highest level possible – whether that is abroad or in England. I don’t know what the future holds for myself.
“Obviously the aim is to get up there and whatever opportunities come, I will have to make the decisions then.

“Obviously the impact he has made and getting into the England team is a massive achievement.”
