Juventus have told Chelsea that Dusan Vlahovic is ‘not for sale’ amid rumours of a £70m transfer bid from Chelsea.

The 23 year old striker only joined Juve last year but is said to be keen on a move away from Turin after struggling to find his best form at the club.

Juventus chief football officer, Francesco Calvo, told DAZN: “Rumours are not something we can control, but the transfer market hasn’t even opened yet.

“Dusan is not for sale. We are satisfied with the effort he puts in, although everyone in life can do better.”
