Juventus are reportedly eyeing a January swoop for Brazilian attacker Willian with the Italian champions making contact with Chelsea to discuss a potential move.

Willian will see his current deal at Stamford Bridge expire at the end of the campaign, meaning that he would be free to agree a pre-contract with a foreign club at the start of 2020.

Interested clubs would have to agree a fee with Chelsea in order to sign the South American for the second half of the 2019-20 season, though, and according to The Mirror, Juve have made contact with the Blues.

The report claims that the Old Lady are hopeful of agreeing a cut-price January deal for Willian, who has also been strongly linked with a switch to Barcelona.

The 31-year-old is allegedly keen to remain with Frank Lampard's side, though, where more talks over a fresh deal are expected to be held.

Willian has scored three times and contributed 14 assists in 21 appearances at club level this term.
