We think that perhaps Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport are jumping the gun on Tuesday. They state that Chelsea and Juventus have an outline agreement for the transfer of Juan Cuadrado at a price of €22m.
The Colombian international is currently on what Gazzetta dello Sport call a 'dry' loan to Juventus, that means there are no options in the deal so without any further agreement Cuadrado would return to Chelsea next summer.
Italian media, including Gazzetta dello Sport, have been explaining for weeks how Juventus are super keen on making the move permanent, and how Chelsea are eager to get every last penny they can from the transfer. On that theme, Gazzetta dello Sport claim Chelsea have a verbal agreement with Juventus at something around the €22m fee.
The Italian newspaper explain Cuadrado's importance to Juventus and state that, regardless of what system the Turin club play, almost all attacks seem to be going through the Colombian. Cuadrado is described as a unique player, but it doesn't make sense that the Italian media can keep talking Cuadrado's talents up whilst trying to talk his price down.
Juventus will surely be fortunate to get a deal at €22m if things progress in the same way as they've started.
