Fine details holding up Juventus return for Chelsea winger Cuadrado

Juan Cuadrado's proposed return to Juventus is reportedly being held up by finite details.

Gazetta dello Sport suggests that Chelsea are open to allowing Cuadrado to head back to Turin but not before specifics of the initial loan are sorted out.

It was understood that Antonio Conte's Blues wanted to make obligatory a clause in the temporary deal that will see Cuadrado join the Bianconeri permanently next summer while the reigning Italian champions wanted it only to be an option.

Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, however, suggests that the deal remains a 'work in progress' as the two clubs continue negotiations that will help 'find a formula' which meets Chelsea's expectations.

It is believed that sorting out particulars, such as the number of appearances that will trigger a permanent transfer, only need to be agreed upon before the Colombian heads back to the Juventus Stadium.
