According to reporter Romano, Leverkusen coach Ten Hach talked about Zach's transfer rumors.

Tenhah: "Zhaka's agent can say anything, but the club has sold three important players and will not let more people go. Zhaka is the leader, he still has three years of contract, and he is too important, we can't sell it."

Previously, according to the Times, Zhaka had negotiated a three-year contract with Sunderland.
