Marotta has admitted "we’d like to keep Juan Cuadrado".
Juventus General manger Beppe Marotta has admitted “we’d like to keep Juan Cuadrado” from Chelsea.
“The first objective this summer is to consolidate this group by keeping the best players, only then will we look at the market,” said Marotta.
Cuadrado is on loan from Chelsea, but there are reports Antonio Conte wants the Colombian winger back at Stamford Bridge next season.
“We’d like to keep Cuadrado, but we have to discuss it with Chelsea first. It’s only natural Conte will try to keep the best players. Cuadrado has been very important for us, so we’ll evaluate what can be done.”
“We haven’t yet spoken to Chelsea, but it’s hard like with Morata. Juan is very well appreciated by [Coach Massimiliano] Allegri, but he’s only on loan.
“I think the English club are well stocked in that department, we’ll try to hold on to Cuadrado. We will soon set an appointment with Chelsea to understand their intentions regarding Cuadrado.
“We’ll see, so much on the market is down to whether other clubs want to sell their best players. Juventus very rarely have sold their best, we only release those who ask to leave.”
