Kehl reveals Gittens 'conversations'

Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl is confident Jamie Gittens will remain “professional” as speculation continues over his future.

Chelsea pushed to sign the winger before the start of the Club World Cup and had a £42million bid rejected by the Bundesliga club.

The second transfer window of the summer is open and the Blues remain determined to sign Gittens, having agreed personal terms with the 20-year-old.

Chelsea are expected to return with an improved offer, though it remains to be seen if it will meet Dortmund’s valuation of around £50m.

“We’ve had one or two conversations with Jamie in the last few days,” Kehl said of Gittens.

“He’s professional enough to know he has to perform. That’s also in his nature. Jamie will still be very important for us in this tournament. We’ll see what happens after that.

“But I don’t have a negative opinion of him.”
