Thegoalmac can reveal that Andre Schurrle's agent Ingo Haspel expects the Germany international's proposed €30 million transfer from Chelsea to Wolfsburg to go through on Friday.
The
24-year-old is keen to leave Stamford Bridge due to his lack of regular
first-team action under Jose Mourinho and has set his sights on a
return to the Bundesliga, where he previously enjoyed success at Mainz
and Bayer Leverkusen.
Chelsea are ready to cash in on Schurrle
following the imminent arrival of Juan Cuadrado from Fiorentina and
Wolfsburg are now on the verge of completing the €30m deal.
"I expect the deal to go through on Friday," Haspel told SID.
"There are still a few talking points, but we're no longer talking numbers. It's not a done deal just yet, though."
Wolfsburg
sporting director Klaus Allofs previously denied they were interested
in signing the versatile attacker, but has now admitted a deal is close
after all, although he has warned that nothing is official just yet.
"The fact is that the signatures are still missing," Allofs told ARD.
"Nothing has been signed as of yet, so I remain a bit cautious. We still have some hurdles to overcome.
The ink on the contract is not dry just yet."
Schurrle will sign a contract until June 2019 with Wolfsburg, worth €6m per year before taxes.
The
Bundesliga side have allowed veteran attacker Ivica Olic to leave the
club for Hamburg in order to free up space for the Chelsea forward.
Schurrle
will join one of the revelations of the 2014-15 Bundesliga campaign,
with Wolfsburg currently second in the league table, trailing leaders
Bayern Munich by 11 points ahead of Friday's meeting with the reigning
champions.
