11 June 2015 14:22

Chelsea and Juventus are in talks over a potential swap arrangement to bring Paul Pogba to Stamford Bridge say reports in Italy.

Chelsea are understood to be leading the race to sign the hottest property in Italian football with a transfer auction expected over the coming weeks confirms his agent.

“Offers are already coming in, but Juventus don’t want to sell, they must make it an auction. His transfer would be one of the most expensive in history.” Said Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola.

Juventus are apparently willing to part company with Pogba for the right fee in order to strengthen their squad and it is difficult to see Juventus resisting the scale of offer that are likely to be presented. Italian website Tuttomercatoweb is understood to believe that Director General Giuseppe Marotta is looking at taking Brazilian midfielder Oscar.

Juventus have made no secret of their admiration for the player who found himself on the fringes of the Chelsea squad towards the second half of the champions Premier League season. It is understood that Oscar would fulfil a No.10 role in Allegri's 4-4-2-diamond-formation with the report claiming that a deal is close.
