Chelsea target set to receive pay rise at Juventus

Chelsea target set to receive pay rise at Juventus

After Mattia Caldara completed his transfer to AC Milan, reports suggest that Daniele Rugani will renew his contract with Juventus, rather than moving to Chelsea. 
 
As reported by Corriere Dello Sport, Juventus are ready to offer the 24-year-old defender a significant pay rise. In fact, the Bianconeri are willing to hand Rugani €1.2m more annually, making it €3m per year in total. 
 
This is Juventus plan to try and convince him to stay, although a move is not on the cards this summer. Chelsea were interested in his services, but it seems the high demand of nearly €60m from Juventus scared them off in the end. 
 
Furthermore, with Mattia Caldara leaving for Milan in a swap deal for Bonucci, Juventus wouldn't want to deprive themselves of yet another talented centre-back, especially Rugani, who has been praised by many defensive legends.
