Reigning Serie A champions Juventus are ready to turn their loan deal for Chelsea's Juan Cuadrado permanent, according to reports.
The 27-year-old only joined Jose Mourinho's side from Fiorentina in the January transfer window, but he struggled to break into the first team.
A loan deal back to Italy was agreed in August, with Massimiliano Allegri now ready to pay £14.8m for the winger, reports Goal.com.
However, Chelsea may scupper the deal by holding on for a fee nearer the £23.3m they paid Fiorentina for his services, the report adds.
Cuadrado, who has only made 15 appearances for the Blues, has played nine times for Juventus this season.
