May 7, 2012 7:25:00 PM
Germany international attacker hints that he could be interested in a move to Stamford Bridge but has received no communication from the Champions League finalists
Bayer Leverkusen forward Andre Scurrle has dismissed claims that he has begun transfer talks with Champions League finalists Chelsea, but has intimated that he may be willing to look at any offer should the Blues' rumoured interest be firmed up.Roberto Di Matteo's side have already concluded a deal to sign Schurrle's compatriot Marko Marin from Werder Bremen this summer, and they are now being heavily linked with another raid on the Bundesliga for the 21-year-old, who is a part of his country's Euro 2012 squad.
But, speaking to Sky, the attacker insisted: "I and my agent have not had any contact [with Chelsea] so we will just have to wait.
"We will see how interesting it is when it becomes concrete."
Schurrle has made 39 appearances in his debut season with the Bundesliga side, scoring eight goals in the process.
