Jonathan David was linked with a move to Chelsea last summer.
A potential transfer didn’t take off as David stayed at Lille and the Blues brought in Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid. As the Canada international’s contract at the French club comes close to running out, he is attracting interest again.
Clubs in Italy have been linked with David in recent weeks and Calciomercato‘s Daniele Longo has shed light on the situation.
The report mentions that Juventus are applying pressure on the player to land him on a free transfer, but there is some intense competition from Chelsea.
The outlet states the Blues made an attempt to land the Canadian last summer and the feeling is that they will be a ‘fearsome rival’ and attempt a move for the striker once again.
Playing in the Premier League is a ‘dream’ for David and while he is also interested in a move to Juve, playing in England could be his preferred destination.
The Bianconeri’s upcoming Champions League clash against Lille would be their chance to take contacts further, but the Blues are also firmly in the race.
