Juventus has reignited its interest in Cesare Casadei, the talented 2003-born midfielder currently with Chelsea, after a pause in discussions over recent months. Casadei, who has struggled to secure a place in Enzo Maresca’s plans at Chelsea, could represent a valuable opportunity for the Bianconeri as his playing time diminishes.
Calciomercato report how over the past two years, Casadei has been on loan at Reading and Leicester City to gain experience and develop his skills. This summer, he opted to stay at Chelsea, reuniting with his former coach Maresca. However, his season has been disappointing, featuring only four appearances primarily in the Conference League and EFL Cup, with no minutes played in the Premier League. Since September, he has not been included in any league matchday squad, indicating his dwindling role within the team.
Given Chelsea’s lack of interest in retaining him as a key player, Casadei may soon become available at a favorable price. Juventus have consistently monitored his development but currently prioritizes other areas of their squad. The club is focused on bolstering its defense to address injuries to key players like Bremer and Juan Cabal while also considering potential reinforcements for their attack.
Although Juventus remain interested in Casadei, any move for the midfielder is likely to be postponed until the summer transfer window. The club is weighing its options carefully and may pursue Casadei if market conditions align favorably.
