Chelsea is considering adding Colombian Juan Cuadrado as part of a deal to lure Kwadwo Asamoah to London.
Asamoah has had a solid pre-season with Italian champions Juventus and his coach Massimiliano Allegri has refused to listen to offers for the Ghanaian.
But Juan Cuadrado has a huge reputation in Italy and is looking for a way to return there after enjoying success with Juventus last season.
According to reports in the Italian media Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has reluctantly given the green light for a swap deal that will see Kwadwo Asamoah head to Stamford Bridge.
