Juventus prepared to offer Alex Sandro to Chelsea in exchange for Emerson: report

Serie A holders Juventus are prepared to offer Alex Sandro in a potential exchange deal for Chelsea defender Emerson, a report from Tuttosport claims.

Emerson has experienced a difficult season with the Blues this term and he has been restricted to only 13 starts in the Premier League under manager Frank Lampard.

As a result, there has been the speculation over his future at the west London side and Tuttosport reports that the Bianconeri are confident of luring him back to the Serie A this summer.

Lampard’s side are currently said to value Emerson at £22m (€25m) but the Turin giants are aiming to propose a swap deal involving Sandro, which would financially benefit them.
