Allofs: Schurrle talking up BVB move
Posted Saturday, July 09, 2016 by Foxsports.com
VfL Wolfsburg sporting executive Klaus Allofs has revealed that Andre Schurrle is leaning towards a move to Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund.
The Germany international has been heavily linked with a transfer to Signal Iduna Park during the off-season, although Die Wolfe insisted they have no intention to sell him.
Schurrle refused to discuss his future while Die Mannschaft were competing at Euro 2016, but less than 24 hours after their semi-final exit at the hands of hosts France, Allofs claimed that the 25-year-old forward expressed a desire to reunite with former Mainz head coach Thomas Tuchel at Dortmund.
"Andre told us that he could imagine a move to Dortmund," Allofs told Wolfsburger Allgemeine Zeitung.
However, any potential deal for the 2014 World Cup winner could drag on for the duration of the transfer window, with the Lower Saxony outfit reportedly holding out for a fee of €30 million for Schurrle.
"This will keep us busy in the next couple of weeks, maybe even until late August," Allofs added.
