According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea are still yet to make an official approach for the player but is believed the Italian giants are seeking a fee of at least €80m.
The Blues have other options at the position amid interest from United and Bayern Munich, but the player’s future remains in Juventus’ hands with his contract running until 2026.

According to odds from Premier League betting sites, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are the three frontrunners with a host of European giants in the running.

Manchester United are still debating whether to extend Wout Weghorst’s contract at the end of the campaign, who is still yet to score a Premier League goal, or look elsewhere.
The club have a long-standing interest in Spurs striker Harry Kane, but United’s budget is still unclear this summer as the Glazer sale process continues.
Despite bookmakers giving Arsenal a better chance, we can see the Gunners sticking with Gabriel Jesus and backing the Brazilian forward to have a consistent, healthy season.
Vlahovic scored his first World Cup goal for Serbia in December and is a renowned name across the sport following his £66m transfer to Turin from Fiorentina last year.
