The 52-year-old also said that the Blues are keen to keep the teenager at Stamford Bridge and have offered him a new deal, perBBC Sport.
"We've proposed a contract for quite a while, so we're waiting," he said. "We certainly value him as a player. It's about patience. I believe he has a bright future with us. I know Bayern is very interested in him, but we're interested in him as well.
