Agent: Chelsea "want" Bayer Leverkusen's Andre Schurrle

Andre Schurrle's agent has confirmed that Chelsea are keen on signing the Bayer Leverkusen forward this summer.

The two clubs have already held talks over the transfer of the 22-year-old to the Premier League outfit.

"I am hoping for a solution around the weekend," Ingo Haspelt told Bild.

"I am awaiting information from Leverkusen or Chelsea. I can only repeat that Chelsea want Schurrle, otherwise they would not be negotiating."

Bayer reportedly want £22m for Schurrle.
