Chelsea manager Antonio Conte wants to bring Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio to England, according to reports.

The 31-year-old suffered a cruciate ligament injury in April last year, forcing him to miss out on Euro 2016.

He subsequently struggled to regain his place in the side, making just 17 starts in the season which just finished as Coach Massimiliano Allegri preferred Miralem Pjanic and Sami Khedira.
