Chelsea have shown strong interest in Juventus left-back Alex Sandro, and the Blues have already seen a £52m bid rejected for the Brazilian.

Reports claim Chelsea have submitted a better bid thought to be around £60m, which Juve seem okay with.

According to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus seem ready to accept the departure of the 26-year-old and has given him the permission to discuss with Chelsea.

Juventus are set to make good profit from the sale of a player they signed for £22m just two seasons ago.

Sandro is also excited at the prospects of playing in the Premier League and would also get a higher deal with this move.
