Juventus are confident of completing a deal to sign winger Juan Cuadrado from Chelsea "in the next few days".

Juventus are looking to sign Juan Cuadrado from Chelsea "in the next few days", according to club president Giuseppe Marotta.

The 28-year-old Colombian spent last season on loan at Juve having failed to make an impact at Stamford Bridge since his £26m move from Fiorentina in 2015.

Marotta told Sky Sports News on Sunday: "I hope that over the next few days we can conclude the Cuadrado deal. For now he is a Chelsea player. We presented a proposal to them and are waiting for a response, but we are optimistic."

The Bianconeri have reportedly offered Chelsea £1.7m for another year-long loan deal before a further £19m payment to make the winger's move permanent.
