The 26-year-old has impressed for Jurgen Klopp’s men this season, despite missing the early part of the campaign through injury, but with Erik Durm emerging as a candidate for a starting role, it has been suggested that the club may be willing to cash in on his signature.

And should the club decide to do so, Liverpool would be waiting with open arms after they expressed that they would be keen to bring him to the Premier League.

“Of course I look forward to hearing things like that and it’s nice when top clubs are interested in you,” he told WAZ.

“But I still have a contract with Borussia Dortmund until 2016 and I feel very, very good at BVB.”

Schmelzer has been on the sidelines lately but says he will be fit to feature in his side’s DFB-Pokal final as well as Germany’s World Cup campaign.

“I’m feeling good again. I have been in full training since Friday and I’ll be ready for the last home game against Hoffenheim next weekend.

“I don’t know whether I’ll play, only time will tell. I was out for five and a half weeks. We’ll see how this week goes. I’m looking forward to the last few games.

“The highlight will be Berlin and my first World Cup this summer. I hope to get back some rhythm from the games against Hoffenheim and Hertha.”
