With the transfer window coming to an end, clubs are starting to scramble about trying to make last minute deals to bolster their squads to help with a difficult season ahead.
Juventus are one of those, and an area they require help with is left-back.
Andrea Pirlo is without Alex Sandro for a month or so, and with little viable backup in the role, his eyes have turned to Chelsea’s Emerson Palmieri.
The Italy international has long been linked with a return to Serie A, but regardless of how many stories are written, he remains put at Stamford Bridge for now.
He needs a serious offer for that, and Andrea Paratici, the man in charge of transfers in Turin, has ‘tuned in’ with Chelsea regarding a move.
The Blues are slightly overcrowded in the role following the arrival of Ben Chilwell from Leicester City, and are willing to let Palmieri go for €25m.
However, ‘in recent days another option has emerged: the loan’.
As things stand, ’it’s still a theoretical solution, but it is clear Juve are enticed’.
One to keep an eye on as we near October 5th.
