Transfer: Juventus give update on De Ligt’s move to Chelsea

Juventus CEO, Maurizio Arrivabene has said the club will not keep Matthijs de Ligt if he is adamant about leaving.

De Ligt is the subject of interest from Chelsea this summer.

Blues boss, Thomas Tuchel, has made the Dutch defender and Nathan Ake his top targets to bolster his defence.

However, Arrivabene insists that “all the three parties in the negotiations have to be satisfied” for De Ligt to join the Premier League side.

He told Tuttosport: “It’s impossible to keep players when they want to leave the club – but all the three parties in the negotiations have to be satisfied.”

Juventus value De Ligt at closer to €100m (£86m), around £10m more than they paid Ajax three years ago.
