Patrick Berger reports that Borussia Dortmund are close to finalizing Fabio Silva’s purchase from Wolves. The Bundesliga outfit’s negotiations with the EPL side are “close to the line”

Borussia Dortmund are closing in on agreements to sign Chelsea pair Carney Chukwuemeka and Aaron Anselmino. Chukwuemeka is due to join the German club on a permanent deal, while Anselmino, 20, is set for a season-long loan – which does not include an option nor obligation to buy.

As expected, soon after agreeing the deal for Aarón Anselmino, Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea have also agreed the deal for Carney Chukwuemeka. According to the latest reports, the deal will be worth around €25m, plus some add-ons, and a “heavy” sell-on clause. This is in line for what’s been reported recently in this long drawn-out process.
