Borussia Dortmund starlet Youssoufa Moukoko has hit back at reports claiming he has turned down a lucrative contract in Germany. The 18-year-old's current deal expires next summer and a host of top clubs are chasing his signature in the hope of securing a top young talent for free.
Moukoko was part of Germany's World Cup squad over the past month but only got one small appearance off the bench in the final group game as Hansi Flick's side were knocked out before the last-16. During his time in Qatar, it emerged that Chelsea were amongst the pack chasing to sign him.
He can negotiate a pre-contract with clubs next month as he enters the final half a year on his deal, but Dortmund are unsurprisingly keen on tying him down for longer. With an exceptional youth record and six goals in 14 league matches already at senior level this season, Moukoko is one of the rising gems in European football.
