The German media outlet reports that Sander has agreed personal terms with Gladbach, and that there is nothing Kiel can do to stop the deal going through as the 26-year-old has a release clause in his contract.
Sander is enjoying a strong season with Holstein Kiel, having made 19 appearances for the North German side, who are second in the 2. Bundesliga.
The 26-year-old central midfielder is a product of the club's academy and has made 79 appearances for the first team, scoring three goals and providing 10 assists.
