Bayer Leverkusen general manager Michael Reschke insists his club have no intent of cashing in on Renato Augusto.
The 20-year-old Brazilian midfielder arrived for just €5 million last summer and has been outstanding for his side and he has helped keep Leverkusen in the chase for the Bundesliga title.
Liverpool, Juventus and Inter are just three of the big names linked with the ex Flamengo standout, but Reschke has now insistied that it will be difficult for anyone to prise the Brazilian international away from The BayArena.
"The fact that a player like Renato Augusto awakens desire in other clubs was always clear," Reschke explained to Express.
"A transfer is not open to debate for us. I had a long chat with the player before Christmas.
"Renato feels happy about us at Bayer and wants to make the step up to the Brazilian national team.
"The boy is facing a great career ahead of him. Should he leave eventually, he can choose where he wants to go."
