Chelsea have reached a breakthrough in their pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen's Andre Schurrle.
The European champions were desperate to sign the forward last summer and they had a bid of around £14m rejected.
It is now understood they have offered around £20m, plus Kevin de Bruyne on loan, and are confident of clinching a deal that will see Schurlle, 21, head to Stamford Bridge in the summer.
Despite reports to the contrary, de Bruyne will not be moving to Germany on a permanent deal.
The Blues are keen for the 21-year-old winger to spend another season out on loan after an impressive spell at Werder Bremen.
