They r linked with plenty of players and a lot of Germans being mentioned, but the reality is, that they wont get most of them..maybe Gündogan if they r lucky, but I even doubt that.
Lars Bender has just recently extended his contract until 2019.

and u can be sure, that he wont be sold this upcoming summer. Just a mega bid of around 40m€ could maybe change the opinion of the board, but i really doubt it. Bayern had already tried to price him away in 2012, but money is not important for Leverkusen.
Sven Bender from Dortmund is impossible to get. Dortmund wont sell any of their important players, as Lewandowski is already gone and IF Gündogan wont extend, then he ll be definitely sold upcoming summer. No one else ll be sold..no Reus, Hummels, Bender or whoever.
Both Benders r very grounded and down to earth guys and would never force a move..they r prototypes of being loyal.
