Chelsea open talks for £8m Brazil international: Antonio Conte wanted him at Juventus
CHELSEA have approached Inter Milan to sign defender Juan Jesus, according to reports.
Juan Jesus has reportedly been a target for Antonio Conte since his Juventus days
Juan made only 19 league appearances last season for Inter and was kept out of the side by centre-back pairing Miranda and Jeison Murillo.
As a result Chelsea have reportedly enquired about the availability of the 25-year-old as an alternative to Roma's Antonio Rudiger.

This means a host of players could get the chop and Juan would be high on that list having lost his place in the starting XI last term.
Juan signed for Inter from Brazilian side Internacional in 2012 for around £3m and has since made 105 Serie A appearances in four years.
