TBR Football understands that Juventus want Renato Veiga to remain in Turin beyond his initial loan, however, Chelsea have been very impressed with the defender.

The Portuguese international has been quick to impress during his loan spell in Italy and is already a key player for T♉hiago Motta’s team.

Veiga earned strong reviews after his Champions Lꦕeague debut as Juventus drew 1-1 against PSV Eindhoven a🏅♌t the Allianz Stadium.

The Italian giants have decided that they want to sign him in the sum🙈mer but at this stage, the Blues have oth🍸er ideas.

Chelsea still believe Renato Veiga has a future at Stamford Bridge

Chelsea have not given up on Renato Veiga with the club always believing he could still have a future in West London, sources have told TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey.

The Blues are pointing to the fact that they did not include a buy option in the deal for the 21-year-ol✅d as their show of faith in the player.

Also, 🌃contrary to reports, Chelsea have not set an asking price on Veiga as they believe that if his form continues, his price would go up anyway.

The West London club are ready to move on from 🍒Benoit Badiashile and feel Veiga would be t🎐he perfect competition for Levi Colwill.

But the situation remains open, TBR Football understands the defender is very happy at Juventus which could be a♛ determining factor in 💧his next step.
