Juventus hope to sign Chelsea midfielder Jorginho in a bargain deal this summer, according to a report.

Juventus are reportedly waiting to see whether Chelsea qualify for next season's Champions League before launching an offer for Jorginho.

The Italy international has been strongly linked with a move to the Old Lady in recent months, with Chelsea thought to be open to the idea of selling him during this summer's transfer window.

According to Tuttosport, Juve are interested in the 28-year-old but will wait to see whether the Blues quality for the 2020-21 Champions League before making an official bid.

The report claims that Juve are of the opinion that it will be 'easier' to sign the midfielder if Frank Lampard's side miss out on Europe's premier competition, meaning that he could be available in a 'bargain' deal.

Chelsea are currently fourth in the Premier League table, one point clear of fifth-placed Leicester City ahead of the final round of top-flight fixtures on Sunday afternoon.

The London giants know that a draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers would be enough to make the top four, but a defeat would open the door for Leicester, who welcome third-placed Manchester United.
