The Brazilian international has been linked with the Bianconeri on numerous occasions already this summer, and it appears as though the speculation isn’t going away.
It is understood that Juve boss Massimiliano Allegri wishes to use the Chelsea star as his number 10 next season, with the Italian giants having to rebuild after losing key figures.
With Andrea Pirlo heading for New York and Carlos Tevez also departing, the Serie A champions need to strengthen their squad and Oscar appears to be top of the list.
However, Chelsea have reportedly set their asking price at €35m, as reported by Football Italia, and are unlikely to lower their demands which creates a problem for Juve.
It is reported that Allegri will consider other options with Real Madrid ace Isco and Manchester City’s Stevan Jovetic also on the shortlist of possible signings, but it is certainly becoming apparent that he wishes to sign the Brazilian if at all possible.
