According to Tutto Juve, Chelsea could be set to make another signing in the goalkeeping department as they target Juventus’ Wojciech Szczesny.
Szczesny, who could be available for just £8.5million (€10million) is reportedly on Chelsea’s shortlist, while Juventus may attempt to replace him with Monza’s Michele Di Gregorio as they look to reduce their wage bill.
It is anticipated that a deal for Di Gregorio could cost around £17.1million (€20million).
Szczesny has kept 15 clean sheets in 32 Serie A appearances for Juventus so far this season.
