Real in ambitious bid for Chiellini

Real Madrid are considering an offer for Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini, reports La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Los Blancos are on the lookout for a new left-back given that Fabio Coentrao looks set to leave Santiago Bernabeu this summer.

New boss Carlo Ancelotti is not too happy with Marcelo, who continues to show numerous defensive weaknesses and he is hoping to lure Giorgio Chiellini to Madrid.

Real Madrid officials have long been trying to bring the Italy international to Santiago Bernabeu and they look set to make another assault.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, they are ready to test Juventus’ resolve with a €22 million bid, but the problem is Bianconeri boss Antonio Conte sees the player as an indispensable member of the squad, alongside Arturo Vidal and Paul Pogba.

Chiellini, 28, has won made 228 Serie A appearances for the Old Lady since joining the club from fierce rivals Fiorentina in 2005.
