Inter have accelerated in the race to sign Chelsea full back Emerson, amidst interest from Maurizio Sarri’s Juventus, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.

The report details how the Nerazzurri are interested in signing the 25-year-old Italian Brazilian, who is contracted to the Blues until 2022. Emerson has fallen out of favour with coach Frank Lampard and hasn’t made a Premier League appearance for Chelsea since January.

Roman Abramovich’s club are looking to sign Leicester’s Ben Chilwell as well, and so it’s clear that Emerson is no longer needed.

Juventus are also interested in signing Emerson, the report continues, and so the Nerazzurri have accelerated in the race to sign the player. Inter met the player’s entourage in recent days to discuss a possible deal and have started talks with Chelsea, who have lowered their demands. The 25-year-old is now valued at around €30 million.
