Chelsea to be offered chance to sign Juventus star in Emerson swap deal

Juventus want to sign Chelsea star Emerson Palmieri and they are ready to offer Alex Sandro as part of the deal, according to Tuttosport. Emerson has repeatedly been linked with a return to Serie A, having fallen down the pecking order under Frank Lampard.

Juventus are confident about securing the signature of Emerson. Chelsea have already quoted Juventus £22m for Emerson’s services, but the Italians want to explore the option of a swap deal. They could use Sandro to flavour the deal with Chelsea, but the Italian do value the Brazilian at a higher price than Emerson. Source: Metro
