schurrie deal agreed

Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Bayer Leverkusen's Germany
international forward Andre Schurrle.
There were fears Jose Mourinho's return to Stamford Bridge
could affect a transfer which has beeen lined up for weeks.
But a statement on the Chelsea website confirmed the deal will
go through subject to Schurrle passing a medical and agreeing
personal terms.
The statement read: "Chelsea Football Club and Bayer 04
Leverkusen have reached an agreement for the transfer of André
Schürrle, subject to the completion of legal documentation and
related matters, including personal terms and passing a
medical."
The 22-year-old will officially go down as the first signing of
Mourinho's second spell as manager.
A statement from Leverkusen announced Schurrle's departure in
conjunction with the signing of Hamburg's South Korea striker
Heung-Min Son.
Director Wolfgang Holzhauser said: "We have made it clear from
the beginning that Andre Schurrle's departure would only be
possible only if we found an adequate alternative.
"We have now found this alternative by signing Heung-Min Son
and thus, in our view, there is nothing to stand in the way of
Andre Schurrle's move."
Son's arrival on a five-year contract comes after Mourinho
blocked the possible departure of Chelsea's Belgium international
Kevin De Bruyne in part-exchange for Schurrle.
