Borussia Dortmund head of first-team football Sebastian Kehl rejects suggestions that Chelsea-linked Erling Braut Haaland could leave this summer.

Borussia Dortmund head of first-team football Sebastian Kehl has said that the Bundesliga giants are planning for the 2021-22 campaign with Erling Braut Haaland in their team.

Chelsea continue to be strongly linked with Haaland, and it has been claimed that the Premier League club are prepared to bid £150m in the hope of securing his signature.

However, Kehl has rejected suggestions that the Norway international could leave the German outfit during this summer's transfer window.

"There is nothing new on this matter. He is in our plans. Erling will return this week and he will be very hungry. He wants to play football, he feels comfortable with us and he will be eager to score many goals," Kehl told Sky Deutschland.

The 20-year-old has scored 57 goals and registered 15 assists in 59 appearances for BVB since joining the club from Red Bull Salzburg in January 2020.

Last term, the forward, who will have a £68m release clause in his contract next summer, found the back of the net on 41 occasions in 41 outings in all competitions.
