Why Chelsea could be favourites for Juventus’ Andrea Cambiaso | OneFootball

Serie A side Juventus failed to qualify for the Champions League and find themselves in a tricky situation. This can lead to the exit of Andrea Cambiaso, with Chelsea interested in the Italian.

La Gazzetta dello Sport provide coverage about the defender, clarifying that the Blues and Barcelona are competing for Cambiaso. The Catalans have enquired about him several times in the last few weeks, with Xabi Alonso also keen.

Juve value ​​Cambiaso at €40 million, and considering the balance sheet balance of just €6 million, the capital gain would be significant, especially without Champions League.

Carnevali holds key

Further, it is claimed that new Juve CEO Giovanni Carnevali will be very important for Chelsea.

He dealt with the Blues closely for Jeremie Boga during his lengthy spell at Sassuolo. He has a good relationship with the London club and he can leverage that, if Chelsea step forward in the next few weeks.

Due to Marc Cucurella’s sale, Alonso’s side can also have a higher financial capacity and that can play into the Old Lady’s hands.
