The full-back has been heavily linked with a move to the Blues but he has now told the Italian club that he wants to remain in Serie A

Alex Sandro has told Juventus he wishes to stay at the club despite interest from Chelsea, according to club director Beppe Marotta.

The Blues have been heavily linked with a move for the full-back, and appeared set to sign Sandro for a fee of £60 million earlier this summer.

However, manager Massimiliano Allegri later confirmed that Juve had no interest in selling the 26-year-old, and Marotta has now claimed that the player has informed Juve of his desire to stay.
