Chelsea 'put £60m asking price on Jorginho amid Juventus interest'

Chelsea reportedly tell Juventus that it would take a bid of around £60m to sign Jorginho should Miralem Pjanic not be included as part of the deal.

Chelsea have reportedly put an asking price of around £60m on Jorginho amid speculation linking him with a move to Juventus.

Juve boss Maurizio Sarri worked with Jorginho at Napoli before taking him to Stamford Bridge, and he now reportedly wants to reunite with the midfielder for a third time in Turin.

A possible swap deal which would see Miralem Pjanic move in the opposite direction has been touted, and Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is rumoured to be interested in that scenario.

However, with Barcelona also interested in Pjanic, Tuttosport reports that the Blues have told Juventus how much a straight cash deal for Jorginho would cost.

The London outfit want between €65m (£58.2m) and €70m (£62.6m) for the Italy international - slightly more than they paid to sign him two years ago.

Jorginho has scored nine goals in 91 games for Chelsea since joining the club.
