The former Mainz 05 striker has been on the radar of English Premier League giants http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 after being impressive in his recent outings, but his club team want to retain him.
Bayer Leverkusen chief executive Wolfgang Holzhauser has announced that they do not want to sell their star performer Andre Schurrle in the near future for any amount, as the forward is invaluable to them.
Chelsea’s initial €20 million offer was declined by the Bundesliga club for the highly-rated attacker. The side want to keep the Germany international in their ranks as they do not want to lose a player of such high calibre and
a move to a European competitor is unacceptable to them.
The current FA Cup and UEFA Champions League winners are expected to revise and improve on their previous offer for the young prodigy, although the Factory Squad outfit have stated on numerous occasions that the gifted player is
to remain in Germany and cannot be bought under any circumstances and price.
The Lions' CEO added that they cannot tag a price on the 21-year-old as they do not want to sell him, and labelling a transfer fee would be of no use. Therefore, the interested parties need to stop their pursuit of the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904
international.
"There is simply no asking price in this case as there is no alternative solution," Holzhauser was quoted as saying in an interview.
The club official suggested that they have made their stance pretty clear and will not discuss the matter now. He said that Schurrle is a very crucial player for the Bundesliga side and selling him is not a viable option for them.
"We have already said everything there's to say on this matter. Andre is an important player for Leverkusen," the chief finally concluded.
The frontman joined the Werkself from Mainz until the summer of 2016 last season and has featured regularly since then. He has established himself as an important member of the Lowen and in turn become a fixture in the German team
as well.
Schurrle scored nine times in his career for Leverkusen and made 40 appearances.
