He has offers from three clubs that he is considering, including options in England, and hopes to make a decision over the weekend.

Chelsea remain in a state of flux with manager Frank Lampard fighting to cling onto his job.

The 42-year-old is under extreme pressure to turn around results and performances after £200m being spent on players in the summer. 

Kai Havertz and Timo Werner have struggled to settle and German coaches Thomas Tuchel and Ralf Rangnick are being considered as potential replacements.
