Chelsea to offer De Bruyne and £12m to land Leverkusen ace
Posted Friday, April 05, 2013 by The Sun
CHELSEA are set to offer Bayer Leverkusen £12m plus Kevin de Bruyne to land Andre Schurrle.
BEST KEVT SECRET ... Forgotten man Kevin De Bruyne in action for Belgium
German sources last night insisted Leverkusen are ready to sell the forward, 22, who starred for Germany at Euro 2012.
Blues were snubbed when they tried to sign Schurrle last summer. But the Londoners are ready to make him their first signing of this close season.
Belgium starlet De Bruyne, 21, has spent this season on loan at Werder Bremen after joining Chelsea from Genk for £7.5m.
He has impressed, netting six goals and providing seven assists in 27 Bundesliga games.
Borussia Dortmund are also after De Bruyne but it seems Leverkusen have the upper hand given Chelsea’s long-standing interest.
Chelsea are also ready to send keeper Thibaut Courtois, 20, on loan to a Premier League club next season.
Fulham, Wigan and Southampton are all after him.
