Schurrle: 'West London feels like home'

Fulham forward Andre Schurrle has revealed that he is excited about being back in West London for the next two seasons.

The German World Cup winner, who was previously a Chelsea player, left the Blues for Wolfsburg in 2015 and has since been playing with Borussia Dortmund.

Following the completion of a two-year loan deal from Dortmund to the Cottagers, however, the 27-year-old told The Sun that he is "really looking forward to the season".

"When I look back, maybe I would change some things. Maybe the move to Germany was too early and I should have stayed at Chelsea a bit longer," Schurrle said. "But like this time, you have options and you either take them or leave them. I took them because I had a good offer at a good club in Germany.

"But the way I felt here in London with the supporters who gave me so much love — that was something I was thinking about when I came back here. The support was amazing.

"I know all the places here, I have friends here. I have all the stuff that I need and I'm really looking forward to the season."

Schurrle won the Premier League title and a League Cup crown while at Chelsea.
