Chelsea transfer news: Juventus have no intention of selling £53million-rated Alex Sandro in January

The 26-year-old left-back was a summer target for the Blues, but boss Antonio Conte failed to lure him to Stamford Bridge

JUVENTUS star Alex Sandro will NOT be allowed to leave Turin in January, even if an offer of £53million comes in.

The 26-year-old left back was strongly linked with a move to Chelsea in the summer, but Antonio Conte failed to lure him to Stamford Bridge.

According to Italian news outlet CalcioMercato, the Old Lady are determined to keep hold of the Brazilian international.

SunSport revealed back in August that the Serie A champions rejected two offers from Chelsea for Sandro's services, with the final bid in excess of £61m.

Conte is believed to be keen on adding another full-back to his squad to challenge Marcos Alonso in the starting XI.

But according to reports, the Bianconeri will stand firm in the winter transfer window to avoid losing the ex-Porto ace.

He has featured 13 times in all competitions, netting once in a 4-0 win against rivals Torino.
