Having tied other Bayer Leverkusen stars down to long-term contracts, Simon Rolfes is now working on a new deal for Jonathan Tah.

"We would like Jona to stay," Rolfes said in an interview with Bild, adding:
"He has developed excellently on and off the pitch."
Tah has been an integral part of Xabi Alonso's successful Leverkusen side at the heart of defense.
The 28-year-old has previously admitted that he's attracted to playing in the English Premier League.
However, given Leverkusen's success this season, he may be tempted to stay put and commit to a new deal.
