Chelsea will announce the signing of Andre Schurrle in the next few days, according to the striker’s agent.
The Independent reports how his current club, Bayer Leverkusen, have held further talks with the Blues and agreed a deal which could see Kevin De Bruyne join them next season.
Hold up
The deal, which is believed to be in the region of £20million, will see Schurrle move to Stamford Bridge, and De Bruyne leave the Premier League club again.
The signing of De Bruyne for the German side will come as a blow to their rivals, Borussia Dortmund and Schalke, as both sides looked to secure the Belgian’s services.
In a shock twist, it now looks as if De Bruyne will move to the Werkself after Schurrle’s agent, Ingo Haspel told the newspaper: “I am waiting for information from either [Bayer] Leverkusen or Chelsea, but there could be some positive news by the end of this weekend.
“It is an indication of how much Chelsea want the player that they are continuing to negotiate.”
Goalscorer
German Schurrle has scored 11 goals in 30 Bundesliga appearances this season, as well as two more goals in six appearances in the Europa League for the club.
His goals have helped lift the club into third place in the Bundesliga, and look set to secure European football again for next season.
