ARCADIA. California. July 6: Romania captain Gheorghe Hagi said on Tuesday he was flattered by reports linking him with Barcelona and Tottenham. but said he would not make any decisions about his future until after the World Cup, reports Reuter.

"If Mr Cruyff at Barcelona Is interested In me. I am delighted. and if Tottenham are interested in me that is a very high compliment from an English club.

"But I cannot think about those things now. I am here in the United States, with Romania In the World Cup and nothing else matters to me.

"Once It's over that's a different slyy I would be happy to play in England one day and 1 would be happy to go back to Spain, but I am still a Brescia player and that's fine with me too.

Reports in both the Romanian and Italian press have linked Hagi with a move from Italy.

Gazzetta Dello Sport said Tottenham had offered Hagi personal terms of 1 million dollar a year for three years and that Tottenham's owner Alan Sugar was due in Italy on Thursday for talks with Brescia's president Gino Corioni. Barcelona are understood to have offered a slightly better deal.

Hagi had a spell on trial with Nottingham Forest in England but never played for the first team.

He has played in Spain, spending two seasons with Real Madrid after Italia '90 and he might relish a move to Real's arch rivals Barcelona after never really proving himself in the capital.

He move to Brescia at the start of the 1992-93 season and although Brescia were relegated to Serie B at the end of that campaign, they have just been promoted.
