NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you all the news coming from Stamford Bridge.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Chelsea have a 'secret agreement' with Juventus to make Juan Cuadrado's loan move permanent next summer.
If both clubs and Cuadrado give the ok, the 27-year-old could join the Serie A giants in a cut-price deal worth £16million.
Meanwhile, former Chelsea midfielder Emmanuel Petit has revealed he regrets the day he rejected Manchester United for a £7.5million Stamford Bridge move in 2001.
Petit wrote in his new book Franc-tireur (Maverick):"On the rare occasions that I've made that choice, I've got it wrong. It was the same thing when I left Barcelona to go back to Chelsea.
"I gave priority to the social life in London when [Sir Alex] Ferguson expected me to sign for Manchester United. My wife didn't want to go to Manchester."
And finally, Manchester City's £55m new boy Kevin De Bruyne has opened up on his failed spell at Chelsea, claiming he never got an explanation from Jose Mourinho for his lack of game time.
The Belgian said: "I was 19 then, worked with three managers, and just didn't play that much. I just wanted to play.
"I had come from Werder Bremen where I had been on loan and played every second so the difference was huge. I wasn't even on the bench.
