Juventus could ask for Emerson to be included in Higuain deal

Juventus could ask for Emerson Palmieri to be included in a deal to sign Gonzalo Higuain this month.

According to Calciomercato, a deal to sign the Italian international would be of interest to the Old Lady.

Chelsea are being heavily linked with Gonzalo Higuain again after missing out on the player over the summer.

However, the two clubs still seem to be poles apart in their valuations of the striker, who is currently on loan at Milan.

Maurizio Sarri is keen for Chelsea to bring the forward to London this month, with the Blues desperately lacking firepower in the final third.

The inclusion of Emerson into the deal could help the two cubs in reaching an agreement.

Emerson is out of favour at Chelsea and has failed to dislodge Marcos Alonso since his arrival from Roma last season.

The Brazilian-born defender struggled with his fitness under Antonio Conte and looks unlikely to break into Sarri’s plans this time around.
