Bayer 04 Leverkusen general manager Wolfgang Holzhauser has accepted that it is quite possible that star player Andre Schurrle has already agreed a pre-contract with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 FC. He has been long speculated with a transfer to the
Stamford Bridge outfit and is expected to make the move in the summer transfer window.
The club official claimed that the Bundesliga side were thinking about the bid from the London club for the young starlet. He stressed that they would analyse their options before deciding whether to accept or reject the deal.
Moreover, he believes that an agreement has been reached between the winger and the Blues.
"Andre Schurrle has probably signed a pre-contract deal with Chelsea," he added.
He further added that the final decision lies with the German side. He stated that Bayer have got a massive bid which they are mulling right now. However, he admitted that price offered by Chelsea will not make a difference as
they want to find a good replacement for their versatile player in which they have not been successful yet.
"It all depends on whether we let him go. We have received a concrete offer for a fee which we are considering. But the price alone is not decisive. We must also have alternatives, which we don't have yet," he mused.
"He still has a few talks to hold with Chelsea. It looks like there is an offer from Dortmund to sign the player for a relatively high fee,” he said.
"According to our information, Chelsea don't want to sell him but just loan him out," he stated.
On the other hand, Kevin de Bruyne is rumoured to sign for Leverkusen as a probable makeweight in a transfer for Schurrle. Nevertheless, Holzhauser ruled his side out of the running as Borussia Dortmund want to sign the young prodigy.
He suggested that De Bruyne will discuss his future with parent club Chelsea as the BVB are willing to offer a good fee for him.
