​Juventus keen on keeping Chelsea loanee Cuadrado

Juventus chief executive Giuseppe Marotta insists Juan Cuadrado will not go back to Chelsea in the summer.

Juventus are hoping to sign the Colombian winger on a permanent transfer after several impressive performances on loan for the Serie A leaders.

Former Juventus manager and current Italy head coach Antonio Conte will not stay with the national side after the European Championship and it has been reported by Sky Sports in Italy that Conte will take over at Stamford Bridge ahead of next season.

"The fact Antonio Conte is going to Chelsea just confirms that we made a good choice when we took him from Siena," he said. "I am proud of this and for him.

"But as for Cuadrado? I don't think Conte will influence our decision. We could keep him here."
