Chelsea transfer news: huge January budget to sign Serie A duo?

18 nov 2018

Chelsea have been doing well under new coach Maurizio Sarri as the Italian manager is always looking at the Italian Serie A to see if he can recruit any new players. Chelsea were actually very close to Juve's Alex Sandro back in 2017 when Antonio Conte was the coach. In the end, the Brazilian stayed on with the bianconeri since Juve had already lost Leo Bonucci and Dani Alves that summer. Alex Sandro's current contract is still set to expire in 2020 as his future with Juve is in heavy doubt at the moment.

SARRI WANTS ALEX SANDRO - According to the Sunday Express (via Ilbianconero), Chelsea might have a very busy January and Alex Sandro is high on Sarri's wish-list. Chelsea are reportedly scared that Fifa might hand them a transfer ban in the near future (because of the Football Leaks revelations) so it seems like Abramovich is ready to dish out 200 million pounds in January. Other than Alex Sandro, Napoli's Hysaj is also high on Sarri's wish-list as the Italian manager has his eyes set on the Serie A. More to come on the matter...
