Juventus yet to give up on Juan Cuadrado

Juventus remain hopeful of signing Chelsea winger Juan Cuadrado on a permanent basis this summer. The Colombian impressed in his temporary spell with the Old Lady last season.

Cuadrado joined the Blues from Fiorentina in January 2015, and played a small part in their Premier League triumph.

However, in the season which followed, he fell out-of-favour under former boss Jose Mourinho, and was subsequently shipped to Juve on a 12-month loan contract.

The 28-year-old followed to play a crucial part for Max Allegri's team as they went on to lift the Serie A title for the fifth consecutive season.

Blues coach Antonio Conte has iterated his desire to keep hold of Cuadrado in recent weeks, but according to Premium Sport, the Old Lady are yet to give up on the player.

Agent Alessandro Lucci is likely to act as an intermediate between the clubs as the Old Lady look to negotiate an £18m move for the attacker.
