Juventus could be prepared to sign Chelsea left-back Emerson this summer as part of the deal to bring Maurizio Sarri to Italy.
According to Tuttosport, via Calcio Mercato, Juventus are closing in on a deal to make Sarri their new manager for next season.
However, they are not willing to pay the €6m compensation figure that is being demanded by Chelsea. Instead, they are considering an agreement in which they sign Emerson for €25-30m as part of the package to appoint Sarri.
The report also mentions that the future of Gonzalo Higuain remains unclear, with the possibility that he could be given another chance at Juventus if Sarri is the manager of the Italian side.
Emerson only made 10 appearances for Chelsea in the Premier League, but was a regular fixture in their Europa League side – playing 11 times – as the club won the trophy on Wednesday – beating Arsenal 4-1 in Baku.
