Juventus defender Alex Sandro could become a new Chelsea player before the end of next week, according to Calciomercato.com.
The Italian website claims that the player has already agreed personal terms with the Blues.
But the Serie A champions have no intention of selling one of their most important players.
The Bianconeri will offer a new contract to the player but it seems that the Brazilian has already decided that he wants to embark on a new experience in the English Premier League.
Juventus might decide to give up and sell if the Blues make an offer in the region of £57million.
Last month, director Giuseppe Marotta confirmed that the club has already received an offer for the 26-year-old.
"Our desire is to not sell any of our most important players," Marotta told Corriere dello Sport.
"We said no to a very good offer from Chelsea for Alex Sandro.
"But we know that we are competing with clubs that are in a position to offer wages that are not rational for us. And players are always their own boss."
