Juventus and Chelsea return to talks over striker swap

Premier League giants Chelsea are back in talks with Juventus regarding a centre forward.

The Blues could be set to add Serbian forward Dusan Vlahovic to their squad before the new season.

Per Fabrizio Romano, the two clubs are involved in a swap that would see Romelu Lukaku go in the opposite direction.

The Belgian wants to leave the Blues, while a move to Inter Milan has collapsed.

Juventus are willing to sell 23-year-old Vlahovic, as he does not fit Max Allegri's system.

He has scored 14 goals in 42 games since signing from Fiorentina, with Lukaku seen as a better fit.
