RUMOURS: Monchengladbach to offer £12m for Christensen
It has been reported by Bild that Monchengladbach will offer £12m to Chelsea for the permanent transfer of Denmark "talent of the year" Andreas Christensen. Borussia Monchengladbach sporting director, Max Eberl, said the following in an interview early Febuary;
"Our intention is to try and get into talks with Chelsea in the summer," Eberl said. "Andreas fulfils everything we've seen in him. And we are delighted that we were able to take him on loan without any ifs and buts."
Andreas remained calm about his future. "I am very happy. I will give it my best in the two years here, and see what the future has in store for me. It's of no use to return [to Chelsea] if I don't get any playing time there. A lot can happen."
Gladbach manager Schubert also wants Andreas to extend his season long loan and praised the young Chelsea defender as a "super centre-back". "I would welcome it if he were to stay here for a long time." he said.
