Hummels rejects talk of Borussia

           
When asked whether the all-German decider at Wembley would be his last game for Borussia, he told Kicker magazine:  "Of course not.Hummels played a pivotal role at the heart of the Borussia defence that won the Bundesliga title in 2010-11 and 2011-12, as well as helping them reach this season's Champions League showpiece thanks to a 4-3 aggregate last-four victory against Real Madrid.I've not had any contact with Barcelona or any other club," he added. "I don't think it's my duty to dismiss rumours which other people invent.He originally joined on loan from Bavarian giants Bayern five years ago, before agreeing a permanent switch in 2009. If there was to be any truth in them, I would say so. If I say there is nothing behind the speculation, then people should believe me.Hummels, 24, has earned a reputation as one of Europe's finest centre-backs since arriving at Dortmund in 2008.The announcement from Hummels - who is expected to recover from a sprained ankle to feature this weekend - will be a boost to Borussia, who will lose playmaker Mario Gotze this summer after he agreed a 37 million euro (£31.5m) switch to Bayern.
