Striker Zaza has said he doesn’t want to leave Turin and above all Serie A, but is believed to be loosening his position.

Wolfsburg have made a €25m offer to Juventus for Zaza, but the Italy international is not convinced.

If he got the chance to work with ex-Azzurri boss Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge, he’d be more likely to accept a move away from Italy.
