Schalke play down Chelsea's interest in Draxler

Schalke midfielder Julian Draxler is unlikely to leave the club this summer according to general manager Horst Heldt.

The 19-year old German international has been heavily linked with a shift to Chelsea but Heldt suggested that no contact had been made with Schalke regarding the talented youngster.

"I have heard nothing about it," Heldt told BILD.

"There has been no official transfer enquiry from Chelsea FC incoming and we are also in no touch with that club actually.

"Still it is a fact there are always clubs considering the qualities of players like Julian Draxler. Of course!"
