Wolfsburg sporting director Klaus Allofs claims Borussia Dortmund are trying to sign Andre Schurrle.
Dortmund are on the market to sign a new forward following Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s impending transfer to Manchester United.
Thomas Tuchel’s side have already failed with a bid for Bayer Leverkusen winger Karim Bellarabi and have now turned their attentions to Schurrle.
“It’s clear that Dortmund’s interest in Schurrle is related to his past with Tuchel,” Allofs told WAZ, via ESPN. “We want to hold on to Andre and qualify for the Champions League again with him.
“But we obviously have to look at the economical side of things as well, although we do not have to sell. It’s not true that we have to sell players to balance the books. We need a good team.
“I cannot say anything about whether Dortmund have already made an offer.”
Schurrle finished last season as Wolfsburg’s top goalscorer in the Bundesliga (9).
