5 players top European clubs need to offload before the transfer window closes

#5 Juan Cuadrado

Juan Cuadrado spent his last season on loan to Juventus

Cuadrado is a player new Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has repeatedly stressed he is very keen on keeping. But the Colombian international seems to have been extremely unhappy in England in the short time he spent there and is desperate for a move back to Serie A. Conte is still trying to convince him to stay, and he could well provide an excellent alternative for Willian in Chelsea’s lineup but it remains to be seen whether Cuadrado can be convinced.

The fact that Juventus, (the team he played on loan for last year) have signed Dani Alves, and Milan (another team interested in acquiring him) are on the verge of signing Jose Sosa (relinquishing their last Non-EU spot) means that there aren’t any concrete suitors for him yet, though. This could be a crucial factor that might mean he’d have to remain with Chelsea after all.
