Chelsea want to add options in their wide areas this summer as they lack depth both on the wings and in the wing-back roles.
Antonio Conte was considering a move for Fiorentina star Federico Bernadeschi this summer but he now faces some pretty stiff competition for his signature.
According to Corriere dello Sport (h/t Sky Sports), Juventus are now the favourites to land the right winger this summer.
The £30m-rated attacker is also wanted by Manchester United, while Barcelona are also interested in signing the 23-year-old this summer.
Bernadeschi is currently away with the Italy U21s at this summer’s U21 European Championships and any transfer away from Fiorentina would have to be completed after the competition.
Chelsea have been linked with a number of wingers this summer and a fresh face on their radar is Borussia Dortmund forward Ousmane Dembele, with reports suggesting Chelsea are ready to pay £70m to bring the Manchester United target to the club.
