Juventus fly in to land Chelsea midfielder

 

Juventus official Fabio Paratici has spent the weekend in London thrashing out a move for Chelsea forward Oscar, according to Tuttosport.

 

The Serie A champions have reportedly been keeping tabs on Oscar for some time and feel they can now prize the Brazilian away following Chelsea’s disastrous start to the season.  

 

Juventus even had a £20m bid rejected over the summer, but are hoping to rekindle their interest in the 24-year-old, who has been limited to just six appearances in the Premier League this season.

In fact, Oscar’s has contributed more defensively that he has going forward this season. Only Cesar Azpilicueta (3.3) and Nemanja Matic (3.4) are averaging more tackles per game than the Chelsea No.8 in the league thus far.
