Bayer Leverkusen chief Voeller insists Schurrle won't go to Chelsea

Bayer Leverkusen chief Rudi Voeller insists Chelsea target Andre Schurrle will not leave this week.

Chelsea are planning a late bid for the Germany international.

But Voeller insists both Schurrle and Lars Bender will not leave: "Schurrle and Bender definitely stay with us. Both are among the most important players in our squad.

"If we lost one or the other the team would break apart, we also wouldn't have time to find a quality replacement."
