Matthaus urges Chelsea, Barcelona target Moukoko to stick with BVB

Germany Word Cup winning captain Lothar Matthaus has urged Youssoufa Moukoko to stay where he is.

Off contract from Borussia Dortmund in June, the 18 year-old striker is wanted by Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona.

But Matthaus told Sky Deutschland: "There is a lot of speculation about whether or not Moukoko will stay at Borussia Dortmund.

"I would advise him to stay at least for another year or two, he doesn't just have to chase money. In Dortmund he has everything he needs to grow, he is in one of the best clubs in Europe for young people.

"There are many examples of young people players who moved to England or other leagues too early because they couldn't wait."
