Report: Juventus start Oscar talks

Juventus official Fabio Paratici was reportedly in London over the weekend to discuss a potential summer move for Chelsea midfielder Oscar.

The Italian champions, who are believed to have had a £20m offer rejected for the Brazilian in the summer, have been strongly linked with a move for the 24-year-old over the last couple of weeks.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, talks have taken place between officials from both clubs and a price is close to being agreed for a player that has struggled to produce his best form at Stamford Bridge this season.

Oscar, who joined Chelsea from Internacional in 2012, hit double figures in each of his first two seasons in England, but has only scored one league goal this term.
