Alex Sandro wants to play in the Premier League

The Brazilian left-back was Antonio Conte's first choice target last summer. Chelsea had made a bid of around €65 million for Sandro which was turned down immediately by Juventus. The full-back was made to stay put in Turin but the situation has worsened since then.

It is believed that Sandro has told the Bianconeri management to let him leave in January as he does not wish to continue with the club. Premier League remains high on Alex Sandro's list with Chelsea still on the lookout for a left-back.

Manchester United are also monitoring Sandro's situation at Juventus with Jose Mourinho desperate to sign a left-back as soon as possible. United are ready to offload Luke Shaw and Daley Blind next month which may pave the way for Sandro to make a move to Old Trafford.
