Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has reportedly been dropped for tomorrow's Champions League encounter with Juventus.

The Spaniard has struggled to find the net since making the £50m move from Liverpool in 2011 and is believed to be on the verge of leaving the club.

The 28-year-old has notched just one goal in his last seven games and has been linked with a move back to his boyhood club Atletico Madrid in a deal that could see Radamel Falcao arrive at Stamford Bridge.

According to The Mirror, Roberto Di Matteo is considering starting with Daniel Sturridge for the trip to Turin, where a victory would see them qualify for the knockout stages.

Sturridge has started just two games all season.
