Chelsea could use Kevin de Bruyne in negotiations for Bayer Leverkusen striker Andreas Schurrle. The Daily Star Sunday says Werder Bremen, Bayer Leverkusen and Wolfsburg are interested in De Bruyne, 21 - and Chelsea are prepared to sell him for a cut-price fee.
Leverkusen are in the driving seat to land him as Chelsea want their winger Schurrle, 22, but Werder Bremen sporting director Thomas Eichin wants De Bruyne to stay with them.
He said: "We have made no secret of our interest to keep Kevin. We are the right club for him."
