"I still do not have a clear future. I need to speak with Spurs to clear up the situation. I have a contract with Tottenham, but it is true that Villarreal have asked about me," said the 21-year-old to the Daily Mail.
Taarabt joined Tottenham from Lens in January 2007, but has failed to secure regular first team football with the Londoners so far. He has made only nine official appearances so far for the Spurs.
The gifted playmaker was farmed out on loan to Queens Park Rangers last term and impressed with a number of impressive performances. The Championship side were not prepared to provide the financial resources to make Taarabt's stay at the club permanent though.
Villarreal supposedly face stiff competition from West Ham United and Sevilla in the race for Taarabt's signature.

Dortmund on level terms but perhaps lucky to be so. First, Alaba draws another full-stretch save out of Weidenfeller, before Mandzukic fires into the side netting after being slipped in by Muller, who is furious that the referee did not penalise Subotic for pulling him back. If Rizzoli had, that would have been a red for the centre-half, who was Dortmund's last man. Anyway, 10 minutes to go in this cracking contest!
9:21 PM BST
Unsurprisingly, things are really heating up in the pub our man Jay Jaffa is watching the game in with fans from both sides:
"Ilkay Gundogan drew the loudest cheers of the night until Neven Subotic's unbelievable goalline clearance. There's a more divided feel to the support in Bierschenke now and every Dortmund fan celebrated Subotic's saving challenge as if it was the winner. What an enthralling final this has been!"

BRILLIANT FROM SUBOTIC! The sliding Serbian somehow manages to hook the ball off the line, after Muller had skipped around Weidenfeller and fired goalwards. Terrific defending! Moments later, Lewandowski does find the back of the net, with a stunning dipping volley from distance, but the whistle had already blown for a handball by the big Pole. We'll give Neuer the benefit of the doubt and say that's why he didn't get a hand on it!
9:14 PM BST
To score a penalty in a Champions League final takes real bottle (just ask John Terry!), so for Gundogan to convert what was his first ever spot-kick for Dortmund is seriously impressive. Talk about ice in the veins.
9:12 PM BST
... AND HE SCORES!!! Gundogan sends Neuer the wrong way, firing low to the goalkeeper's left to level the Champions League final. What a response from Dortmund! But seriously, what a terribly executed challenge from Dante! He didn't even get near the ball!
