Chelsea ready to use Lukaku in deal to sign €80million player
Chelsea are said to be in talks with Juventus regarding the possibility of signing Dusan Vlahovic, according to a new report.
The Blues are in need of a top finisher, and the Serbian has emerged the latest target.
It is being claimed by Tuttosport that Chelsea want to make Romelu Lukaku a part of the deal that will see Vlahovic move to Stamford Bridge in the coming weeks.
Juve had an interest in the Belgian last summer, but the move broke down due to a disagreement between the striker and the Serie A club.
There is also a financial angle to the deal, with the report adding that Vlahovic is set to earn up to €12m at Juventus next season, and they don’t want to pay that much, hence the eagerness to sell him.
Furthermore, the report claims that Juve boss, Massimiliano Allegri is a huge fan of Lukaku and wants to replace Vlahovic with the Chelsea flop.
