Chelsea newly-appointed manager Antonio Conte remains in the hunt for Juventus midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah.
The Daily Star says Conte is ready to sign the Black Stars of Ghana midfielder this summer.
The 27-year-old enforcer has been on the radar for the Blues in this summer transfer window.
Conte signed Asamoah for Juve in 2012 from Udinese and the Ghana international was a key figure during the Italian's three-year reign at the Serie A giants.
