When asked if he would trade Welbeck for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, Hurzeler responded by saying that he believes Welbeck is an invaluable asset to the team.
Hurzeler emphasized that his decision to keep Welbeck is based on the player's exceptional personality, leadership qualities, and role model status, both on and off the pitch.
Welbeck's outstanding performance has caught the attention of England's manager, Thomas Tuchel, who is expected to include him in the squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Albania.
Welbeck's inclusion in the squad is likely due to his impressive form, which has been in contrast to Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins, who has struggled to find his footing this season with only one goal in 14 games.
