German World Cup winner Andre Schurrle has been made available for loan by Borussia Dortmund with the Bundesliga club accepting they will have to continue paying half his £150,000-a-week wages.
Newcastle and Stoke are among the clubs considering a move for the 27-year-old who won a Premier League title at Chelsea under Jose Mourinho and set up the winning goal for Mario Goetze in the last World Cup final.
However, he has not featured regularly for Dortmund and the club want to make a saving on some of his salary even though they would ideally prefer to send him out on an 18-month loan.

Schurrle deputised for Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang up front in Dortmund's last game amidst strong interest in the Gabon international from Arsenal. 'It's caused unrest,' admitted Schurrle afterwards.
'It hasn't been easy to concentrate on football because there's only been one topic off the pitch,' Schurrle continued.
The forward completed a £25million switch from Wolfsburg to Dortmund in 2016 on a five-year deal.
Stoke are also being linked with Senegal international midfielder Papa Ndiaye though they are reluctant to pay his £18million buy-out clause.
