Chelsea could swap Emerson with Alex Sandro this summer

Chelsea could land the signature of Juventus defender Alex Sandro in a deal which would see Emerson move in the opposition direction, Calciomercato reports.

Emerson has fallen down the pecking order since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel as the manager in January, and he is currently the third-choice behind Ben Chilwell and Marcos Alonso for the left wing-back position.

His current contract with the Blues expires at the end of next season, and it is reported that the Bianconeri are planning an approach to land his signature this summer. The club have been following him for sometime, and are prepared to offer Sandro in exchange.
