Schurrle Dismisses Atletico Madrid Rumours

The World Cup winner, Andre Schurrle is not a regular starter for the Blues and he has been linked with a move to La Liga champions Atletico Madrid. The Spanish side are reportedly set to renew their interest in the next transfer window but Schurrle has insisted that he has had no thoughts of leaving Stamford Bridge.

According to the Mirror, Schurrle said, “Mourinho has given me this feeling that I would be a big part of the team. He plans with me and he wants me in this team and he wants to play me. That’s why I want to stay at this club. Everything here is good for me. I have the pressure to perform, I have the pressure to do well in training.”

He added, “I have the great fans that all support me here and so there was no question for me that I would leave this club in the summer. I just want to take the chances I get, improve my game, improve myself and we’ll see what happens.”

So it is good to hear of another top class player who understands what he can expect in terms of playing in the 1st team at a big club like Chelsea and he is prepared to stay and compete to play amongst the best for one of the best managers.
