[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Chelsea are now open to the idea of selling Juan Cuadrado, because of his will to leave. (via @DiMarzio) #CFC #Juventus #Inter

#Juventus offered €25m [between the loan & buy-back] to #CFC for Cuadrado. Chelsea would like to get at least €30m for him (via @DiMarzio)

#Inter consider Cuadrado as the potential alternative to Candreva. Montella also likes & would love to get him at Milan (via @DiMarzio) #CFC

He can leave the way Moses has been playing we don't need Cuadrado.

Just wanted to say this. I'm finding hard to believe he can do better than what Moses did today, extremely hard.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

Please sell him. When he got tackled by Shawcross (I think that was him or it was Charlie Adam ?) in that Stoke game and went to his shell scared I wouldn't have imagined then that we can get 30m€ for him.

We have too many AMs anyway. Turn Cuadrado, Pedro, Kenedy, Moses into 1 proper attacking midfielder and be scared.

First thing first, I'm with you that Chelsea should see the back of Cuadrado when he has decent market value like for example right now.

However !

Conte's known fan of Cuadrado. In fact, whispers are that it was direct reason why Conte resigned from his post at Juve. Morata was bought 2 days after Conte resigned and the deal was struck already when Conte was still Juve manager. But he wanted someone else still and that one was Cuadrado. But Juve couldn't deliver. At least that's what I read.

I like the idea of Conte being mischievous tactic in transfer dealings but I think you should take what he says here at the face value and Cuadrado will indeed be Chelsea player come 1st of September.,

Thanks BCS.

I think you may be right. If you are, and Juan is here on 1st September, then let's hope he is still here on 1st February because that would mean it had prooved a good decision.

I respect Juan being upfront about wanting to leave. He didn't let his agent play games or ask Juve to bail him out. That makes it easier for the club to quickly get a deal done and ship him out.

Chelsea are open to selling Juan Guillermo Cuadrado for €30m, as Juventus, Inter and Milan show interest.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Antonio Conte has given the all-clear for the Colombia international to move on, as the player requested a return to Serie A.

The ideal for him would be joining Juve, where he spent last season on loan to rediscover his confidence.

Please. 30m euros would be fantastic. Come on Juve, stump up the cash! (Or swap him for Bonucci :))

A swap deal with Bonucci will be ridiculously awesome, but can't see it happens unfortunately.

Wishful thinking mate!

Yep, good on him. A bit of straightforwardness is very welcome. It may seem that, in making clear that he wants to leave, Juan is reducing CFC's bargaining power but in reality Juve will already know Juan wants to join them so this is only really news to people like us, not to any of the parties involved.

€30m would mean that the outgoing moves completed so far this season will have more than covered the cost of Michy Batshuayi and other departures which might follow could be expected to cover N'Golo Kante's transfer fee. Puts us in a nice position to continue upgranding our squad this window.

What outgoing transfers? I'm actually surprised by the complete lack of exits so far.

Maybe we are waiting for the incomings first?...

We are reported to have inserted a buyback clause into the contract of sale when Jeffery Bruma moved to PSV. It is also reported that, as a result of this, we were paid €5m when Bruma joined Wolsburg this season.

We will be awarded a fee following John Swift's move to Reading. My guess is that this fee, which is to be set by tribunal, will be £2m although it could,and in my opnion should, be more.

I guess. But you would think the futures of the likes of Van Ginkel, Moses, Pasalic, Djilobodji, Atsu, Chalobah would not be dependent on incoming players.

I just remembered the club also made good money from the Ramires and Salah deals.

but it is... imo, conte already knows which young players he will loan again.

[Unionjack 7,531]

I'm in 2 minds over "Square"

On one I still remember that I was happy we signed him and how  much we were looking foreward to him doing his dance when he scored. But for whatever reasons  he didn't meet expectations (like many others that we have signed)

On the other we know that a spell at another club getting REGULAR playing time rejuvinating and reboosting his confidence can change a player.

IF Conte says he likes him and wants him to be part of Chelsea then we have to give him the trust and say go for it. We cant just buy into this project half arsed.

Or he might just be saying he wants to keep him cause we always want what we cant have so Juve MIGHT just want to do a deal/swap or summet.

It's not the most importasnt decision we have on our list at the moment so I'm not fussed if he stays or goes.
