Chelsea have agreed a £35million deal with Juventus to sign Italian defender Daniele Rugani according to talkSPORT.

The Blues have been in talks with Juventus to sign the defender for the last couple of weeks and talkSPORT are claiming Chelsea have now reached an agreement with Juventus.

Chelsea initially failed with an offer worth around £30million before the offer of £35million was accepted by Juventus.

Rugani is expected to sign a contract worth £70,000-a-week and it is believed incoming Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri is pushing for the deal to be completed.
