New Juventus manager, Maurizio Sarri, is urging the club to sign Jorginho and Emerson Palmieri from Chelsea, The Times reports.
The 60-year-old had left Stamford Bridge to return to Serie A, signing a three-year contract with the Italian champions.
Sarri guided the Blues to a third-place finish in the Premier League and won the Europa League, beating Arsenal in the final.
But Chelsea supporters were not fully satisfied with his style of management and failed to warm up to the Italian’s style of play.
One key change Sarri insisted upon was to remove N’Golo Kante from his role at the heart of midfield and replace him with Jorginho, who followed Sarri from Napoli to Stamford Bridge in a £57 million deal.
He now wants to bring Jorginho with him to Juventus to help implement his playing style.
Sarri also wants Emerson, who struggled for playing time at the start of the season under him, but as the campaign progressed, was preferred over Marcos Alonso.
