Juventus to swap Alex Sandro for Emerson Palmieri?

Juventus could reportedly allow Alex Sandro to join Chelsea this summer as part of a swap deal for Emerson Palmieri.

Sandro has missed stages of the 2020-21 campaign through injury and coronavirus, but the Brazilian remains an important player for the Old Lady, making 26 appearances in all competitions.

The 30-year-old's future in Turin continues to be called into question, though, with Andrea Pirlo's side thought to be keen to shift the left-back's wages in the upcoming market.

According to Calciomercato, Juve are admirers of Chelsea's Emerson and are keen to explore the possibility of a swap deal during this summer's transfer window.

The defender has only featured on 14 occasions for the Blues during the current season, with just two of those outings coming in the Premier League.

Emerson's current deal at Stamford Bridge is due to expire in June 2022.
