# Chelsea looking to land Bernadeschi

Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly keen to land Federico Bernadeschi from Fiorentina this summer.

Bernadeschi has had a breakthrough season out in Italy, contributing to 19 goals in all competitions at just 23-years-old. After a stellar campaign, the club’s board have opened talks over a new deal for the Italian – which have reportedly stalled.

Italian transfer expert [Alfredo Pedulla](https://www.alfredopedulla.com/esclusiva-bernardeschi-spingono-quattro-le-proposte-partono-35-buffon//?tag=exp098-20) claims that the player is sought after by two English clubs – one of them being Chelsea.

However, United are also touted with interest and are keen to land the Italian, who is reportedly valued at £30m.

[Chelsea](https://readchelsea.com/), however, may have the advantage – with current boss Antonio Conte a familiar figure for the player – the man who handed him an international debut.

The Azzuri international has reportedly rejected a £2 million-a-year deal from Fiorentina amid interest from elsewhere.

It’s no doubt that the two English clubs can offer him a lucrative contract with a larger pay cheque than his current side.
