Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is eager to add Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci to his squad and will offer him a four-year contract, the Sun has revealed.
The 30-year-old has established himself as one of the strongest defenders in Europe and was at the heart of the defensive department of Massimiliano Allegri's squad this season.
Real Madrid, Manchester City and Manchester United are also interested in the Italy international.
Conte tried to sign the experienced defender during last summer's transfer window but he eventually decided to stay in the Serie A.
Juventus are reluctant to sell one of their best players but they might listen to offers if they are in the region of £48million.
