Dortmund's "Borussia" forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang may move to China.
The country's sports platform "Sina Sports" reported that Guangzhou "Evergrande" has agreed on the Bundesliga player's release clause.
It is claimed that the 28-year-old African would cost the wealthy club as much as 72 million euros.
Earlier, powerful "Premier" league clubs - "Liverpool", "Chelsea", "Man Utd" - showed interest in the striker.
Last year, coached by world champion Fabio Cannavaro, "Evergrande" triumphed in the Chinese league and hopes to retain the title of champions.
However, "Borussia" sports director Michael Zorc tried to deny the reported information and insisted that negotiations were not taking place.
