Borussia Dortmund have reportedly identified Andre Schurrle as a potential replacement for Marco Reus.
It is believed that Dortmund head coach Jurgen Klopp has resigned himself to losing the services of Reus, who is thought to be stalling on the offer to sign a new contract at the Westfalenstadion.
Consequently, Klopp has started to draw up a list of alternative options, which includes Chelsea attacker Schurrle, according to the London Evening Standard.
Schurrle, 24, joined the Blues from Bayer Leverkusen for a rumoured £18m in 2013, but he has been unable to secure himself a regular place in Jose Mourinho's starting lineup.
Reus's current deal with Dortmund is due to expire in 2017, which could mean that he will leave the club in the summer, with Bayern Munich said to be his most likely destination.
