Borussia Dortmund have released former Chelsea forward Andre Schurrle with one more year to run.

The 29-year-old won the World Cup with Germany in 2014 but has endured mixed fortunes since.

Most recently, he managed two goals and four assists in 18 appearances for Spartak Moscow during the second half of 2019-20.

The Bundesliga club announced that a rescission had been mutually agreed.

“On reflection, it was a period with highs and lows – but also with many valuable experiences both on a sporting and, in particular, on a personal level,” he told the club’s official website.

“I would like to thank those responsible at BVB and wish the club and its special fans all the best for the future.”
