Immers has been in excellent form this season, netting 12 goals in 32 appearances as Feyenoord finished 2nd in the Eredivisie.
In January, English Championship side Middlesbrough had a bid rejected for the 27-year-old, but the midfielder is now targeting a move to either Spain or Italy.
When asked about a move, Immers told an Omroep West TV show, “Absolutely, I have the age to make that step. (to Spain or Italy) Those are the countries for me. There you have nice weather and technical football,”
Immers joined Feyenoord from ADO Den Haag in 2012 and has a contract in Rotterdam until 2016. Despite his good form for Feyenoord this season, the midfielder is yet to make his Netherlands debut, and was left out of a pre-World Cup training camp featuring Eredivisie players announced by Louis van Gaal on Monday.
