Borussia Dortmund have moved swiftly to reject talk of a move to Real Madrid for whizzkid midfielder Mario Goetze. The Germany international is one of the hottest prospects in European football and has been linked with a move to several top European clubs.
But Borussia Dortmund remain stubborn in their attempts to keep Goetze at the club.
Talk of a 32m GBP move for Goetze to Arsenal last summer seemed to dominate the back pages at times, but in the end the German decided to stay at Dortmund.
Talk of a move to Real Madrid has seemingly concerned Dortmund, and they this morning released a statement showing their intent to keep the talented midfielder.
"Firstly, there is no offer from Real Madrid", said Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke to Die Welt.
"Second, it is clear that the departure of Mario is non-negotiable.
"In this regard, any possibility is a false debate."
