According to Sky Sports, Schalke offered €10m for the 18-year-old before they were instantly knocked back.

The interest from Germany comes as no surprise with Bundesliga clubs making a note of targeting young British talent.

Reece Oxford, Jadon Sancho and Reiss Nelson have all enjoyed success after initially finding their pathways to first team football blocked.

RB Leipzig have also shown an interest in Matondo but Sky Sports claim that a summer departure is more likely.
