1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 11 In an interview, Dortmund sports director Kyle revealed that Chelsea negotiated Gittens’ transfer by phone yesterday. He said Gittens’ transfer to Chelsea failed.
Kyle said: “Ultimately, we didn’t reach an agreement because we had different views on the current value of the players. But we respect each other very much in the negotiations and we have maintained a good conversation with Chelsea for years.”
“However, we have different opinions, and it’s great that Gittens will now be part of our Club World Cup, and we’re glad he can stay. I’m not responsible for the late offer, but of course, I still need to deal with this issue, and we’ve done that.”
“Let’s see how things will go in the future.”
