Chelsea target Meyer keen on Schalke stay

Schalke young gun Max Meyer says he is eager to remain with his current club despite apparent interest from Chelsea.

The 18-year old German attacking midfielder is being linked with a January move to Stamford Bridge but insists he is keen to stay put in Gelsenkirchen and forced his way into the first team.

"I am really happy I seem to be so much in demand," he told Deutsche Pressagentur.

"I have read about an interest from Chelsea in the newspapers. But I am feeling great being at Schalke.

"We are in very good negotiations with Schalke and I think we will be able to come up with a result in this before the end of the year."
