Juventus are linked with £25m move for Chelsea star Oscar

By

Monaco have asked to take some of Chelsea’s youngsters on loan as part of a deal that will see striker Radamel Falcao play at Stamford Bridge next season, according to the Telegraph.

The Ligue 1 club are said to be keen on Mario Pasalic, 20, and 18-year-old prospect Charly Musonda.

Meanwhile, Juventus have again been linked with a move for Chelsea star Oscar.

He signed a five-year contract in November and more recently manager Jose Mourinho insisted there was no prospect of the Brazilian being allowed to leave.

But the Mirror says Chelsea are ready to consider offers for Oscar, 23, and that Juve boss Massimiliano Allegri wants to sign him for £25m.

It comes after Allegri was asked if he admired Oscar and replied: “Very much. He is one of those players who can make a difference in Europe.”

The Mirror also reports that Monaco striker Falcao has agreed a deal to join Chelsea on loan.

Crystal Palace continue to be linked with Chelsea striker Loic Remy.

The Frenchman played under Alan Pardew at Newcastle and ESPN says the Palace boss is keen to take him to Selhurst Park. 

Chelsea face a battle to keep Thibaut Courtois this summer, the Evening Standard claims.

The newspaper says Courtois’ representatives are actively exploring whether Real Madrid would be interested in signing the goalkeeper and that, in response, Chelsea have placed a £73m price tag on him.

Speculation about Courtois comes as Petr Cech continues to be tipped to leave after being displaced by the Belgian as Chelsea’s number one keeper.

Arsenal have been consistently linked with Cech and today there are reports that he is set to discuss his future with Chelsea.

The Standard also reports that Inter Milan are interested in Chelsea duo Juan Cuadrado and Mohamed Salah.

Salah, who has also been linked with Tottenham, has impressed while on loan at Fiorentina and they are keen to sign him on a permanent basis.

The Express suggests Inter will make an offer for Salah if they are unable to land Cuadrado.

The Mirror says Inter will offer £12m for Salah and that the player remains open to offers.

The Express also claims Chelsea are among the clubs that will be ‘shocked’ by Manchester City’s spending plans this summer.

And Talksport says Chelsea face competition for the signing of Inter forward Mauro Icardi, who has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge for some time.

Real Madrid have apparently joined a race to sign Icardi, who is also said to be a target for Manchester City.
