More recently, Chelsea had hoped to get Sandro in a package deal for Emerson Palmieri. Chelsea have identified Chilwell as a priority defensive target ahead of next season with manager Frank Lampard looking to bolster a vulnerable rearguard.The England international is considered a major upgrade on Marcos Alonso and Emerson Palmieri but Leicester may demand as much as £80million for the 23-year-old.Chelsea are therefore considering other options and have been linked with a host of cheaper alternatives including Nicolas Tagliafico, Sergio Reguilon and Alex Telles.Marc Cucurella and Robin Gosens have also been touted as potential signings for the west London club but now speculation has arisen surrounding a move for Alex Sandro.The Brazilian full-back has been targeted by Manchester United in the past while Chelsea reportedly tried to sign the 29-year-old when Antonio Conte was in charge at Stamford Bridge.Sandro was a key member of the Juve first team this season, making 41 appearances under previous boss Maurizio Sarri.But the 29-year-old is considered expendable under Pirlo and could be one of the more experienced players to make way for new signings.Juventus are supposedly looking to raise £180m through player sales in order to allow the recently-appointed manager some freedom in the transfer market.And a cut-price deal could be available to Chelsea with Juve keen to shift Sandro's large salary off the wage bill.It has been claimed that Manchester City are also interested in Sandro, meaning the Blues will have a fight on their hands if they do move for the left-back.The departure of Sarri following Juventus' Champions League exit has complicated transfer dealings for Chelsea, with it previously expected that Emerson Palmieri would reunite with his former boss in Turin.The Italian could have been included in a swap deal for Sandro, but it remains to be seen whether Pirlo wants the 26-year-old at the Allianz Stadium.Similarly, Sarri was desperate to sign Jorginho and was prepared to pay around £50m for the playmaker but Chelsea are now deprived of that potential income source.This could prove critical as they look to strengthen other key areas, including central defence and in goal.Lampard is keen to sign Declan Rice and utilise the West Ham midfielder at centre-back while Jan Oblak, Andre Onana, Nick Pope and Ben Foster have all bee suggested as replacements for Kepa Arrizabalaga.Meanwhile, the Blues are currently in negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen over a transfer fee for Kai Havertz.The 21-year-old has supposedly already agreed personal terms with Chelsea but a price tag is yet to be decided with Leverkusen wanting £90m and Chelsea beginning talks at £70m.
