Juventus warned not to sign Chelsea star

Chelsea winger Pedro is all but certain to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, when his Blues contract expires.

The Sun report the Spaniard has been linked with reuniting with former boss Maurizio Sarri at Juventus.

But former Inter Milan defender Antonio Paganin appears to have warned the Old Lady off signings the 33-year-old.

He told Tutto Mercato: “No [he is not the right profile] because he does not have the characteristics.

“He is already getting on in years. Juve must not think of the free [transfer] but of the right parameters for someone to look to the future.

“Juve need a different profile.

“If he is taken as a squad player, that is fine, but as an investment he is not worth the gamble.

“He comes from a period of Chelsea where he was too inconsistent and he was not the one we saw at Barcelona.”
