Chelsea: Delegates in London in the hope of finalising winger transfer

Representatives of Wolfsburg are said to be meeting Chelsea officials in London today in order to try to finalise a deal for want away winger Andre Schurrle. According to The Daily Mail:

Wolfsburg delegates are in London hoping to thrash out a deal for Chelsea midfielder Andre Schurrle.

Chelsea fans have been kept in the dark over the last few days with regards transfers. After what seemed like a quiet window for the club, the rumour mills exploded not life late last week with talk of a massive transfer merry go round including Juan Cuadrado, Andre Schurrle and Douglas Costa.

We have always liked Schurrle but always felt that he isn’t really a Mourinho type of player. He doesn’t fit comfortably enough into one of the roles in the Chelsea boss’s strict 4-2-3-1 template. He hasn’t got the pace for the wide roles in a 3. But he isn’t quite good enough in front of goal to be a top finisher.

He is an excellent player but, like Juan Mata, he doesn’t fit into the template so we can imagine this one happening sooner rather than later.

Chelsea fans will hope that this move is the catalyst for the signings of Douglas Costa and/or Juan Cuadrado, who appear to be ready made replacements for the potentially departing Schurrle and Mohamed Salah.

Let’s see some of Andre’s better moments for the club. Chelsea fans: Is Jose right to let him go?
