Chelsea Transfers: 10 Plausible Summer Deals For Abramovich

2. Andre Schurrle

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4eKjvUTISo Andre Schurrle, a tenacious Bayer Leverkusen forward and more recently a regular in Germany's international squad, has become one of Chelsea's prime targets over the course of the season. Rafael Benitez believes that Chelsea have relied too heavily on Juan Mata for creativity this season and that a stronger, more creative midfielder is needed. Schurrle provides the creativity that Chelsea so desperately need, with his willingness to play as a central striker or out on the wing. Chelsea are the clear front-runners in the race to sign Schurrle, expecting him to join the squad in the summer for a fee of around £20M.
