Chelsea defender Sarr was flying to Germany before Greuther Furth deal collapsed

Chelsea defender Malang Sarr's move to Greuther Furth fell through over his wages.

All parties had agreed for Sarr to join the German outfit on a season-long loan, with a medical scheduled for deadline day afternoon on Tuesday.

However, Fussball Transfers reports the move fell through over a disagreement regarding how the two clubs would split Sarr's wages for the season.

Negotiations were so advanced that Sarr was on a flight to Germany before it was decided the transfer was off.

The decision was made at 6pm with Nick Viergever joining Greuther Furth from PSV Eindhoven instead.
