Chelsea are reportedly putting up a revenge on Serie A champions Juventus for refusing to sell Leonardo Bonucci and Kwadwo Asamoah to the West London club this summer.
According to Calcio Mercato, Chelsea won’t let Juan Cuadrado join the Turin club on loan for the ongoing season, if they won’t pay enough for his services, and agree a buy-back clause to be included on the deal.
The Blues also demand Juventus to set a transfer fee for the Colombian’s permanent move at the end of his possible loan spell.
What comes to Nemanja Matic’s proposed Juventus move some weeks back, encapsulates how weak the relationship between Antonio Conte’s former and current club is.
Cuadrado was originally tipped to be a key player in Conte’s plans for the current season, but the Italian made an U-turn and the player is now bound to move away on loan or permanently.
The 28-year-old winger had a stellar loan spell for the Bianconeris last campaign, and has attracted interest from several Serie A sides including one of Chelsea’s pre-season opponents; AC Milan.
