Bayer Leverkusen general manager Michael Reschke has
confirmed interest from abroad in alleged Liverpool target Renato
Augusto.
The former Flamengo youngster is tipped for a bright future and
Reschke believes it is inevitable clubs like Liverpool are
monitoring his progress.
After only signing for the Bundesliga club last year, Bayer are
reluctant to even consider losing the 20-year-old attacking
midfielder.
"The fact that a player like Renato Augusto awakens desire in
other clubs was always clear," Reschke told 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."
