Andre Schurrle's switch from Chelsea to Bundesliga side Wolfsburg is picking up pace, despite the Wolves having claimed that money is holding up the move.

Wolfsburg sporting director Klaus Allofs says that there is no agreement with Chelsea yet, with the sticking point thought to be that the Wolves want to pay €27m for Schurrle, while the Blues want €30m for the former Bayer Leverkusen man.

But the deal is still tipped to go through and Schurrle's father and his agent Ingo Haspel have been spotted entering Wolfsburg's offices this morning.

 


The Bundesliga side are expected to do all they can to get a deal over the line before the transfer window slams shut later today.

Schurrle has already agreed terms with Wolfsburg and is simply waiting for the two clubs to thrash out their own agreement.

Chelsea are expected to replace Schurrle with Juan Cuadrado, who is poised to arrive at Stamford Bridge from Fiorentina.

The Blues will also ship Mohamed Salah on loan to Fiorentina for the remainder of the season.
