Report: Andre Schurrle close to £27m move from Chelsea to Borussia Dortmund

Report: Schurrle close to Dortmund move

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly close to sealing a £27m capture of Andre Schurrle from Chelsea.

The German international has been heavily linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, and manager Jose Mourinho recently stated that only a "phenomenal offer" would convince Chelsea to sell.

According to The Express, Dortmund are willing to meet the Blues' figure as they hunt for a replacement for Marco Reus, who is expected to leave the Bundesliga outfit in the summer.

Chelsea are said to be keen to push through the Schurrle transfer in order to find the funds to reach the £26.8m buy-out clause in Juan Cuadrado's contract at Fiorentina.
