With talks underway, Chelsea are currently offering €28million (£24.2m) with Juventus under pressure to balance their books before the end of the month. The Serie A giants however want a fee closer to €40m (£34.6m) for Cambiaso.
Barcelona have already approached Juventus with a list of players deemed surplus to requirements to discuss a swap offer. Chelsea are also prepared to discuss one of their players going in the opposite direction with Jackson of interest, Gazzetta dello Sport report.
Jackson is set to return to Stamford Bridge after spending last season on loan at Bayern Munich. He meets the profile of what Juve are looking for up front and could tip things in Chelsea’s favour as they look to beat Barcelona to a deal.

Jackson joined Chelsea in 2023 from Villarreal for a fee of £32m, serving as Chelsea’s no1 striker for two seasons. The signings of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro pushed him down the pecking order, joining Bayern on loan last summer.

‘He’s going to be a big loss,’ Terry told Piers Morgan Uncensored. ‘He has been one of our best players the last two or three years so it will be a very big loss.
‘I think for Alonso coming in the door and he walks out the door, it doesn’t look good.’
