Towards the end of the transfer window, it was claimed that Chelsea, in desperate need for a left-back, made an ‘enquiry’ about Alex Sandro.
The Brazilian is seen as something of an old flame for the Blues, who have been linked with a move for him over the past few years, without ever managing to sign him.
A bid was made in the past, said to be of around €40m, but Juventus weren’t keen to let him go at the time, but that has now changed.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the player is ‘increasingly in decline in Turin’, but that shouldn’t stop him from getting a transfer in the summer.
It’s said Sandro ‘is like in the Premier League’, and we can fairly assume, considering Chelsea made a move for him in January, that Thomas Tuchel’s side are included in that.
What’s good for the Blues this time around is that Juventus are ‘unlikely to take action to keep him’ once the season is over, opening the door for the London side to finally get their man if they still want him.
