Chelsea target Fernando Bernardeschi arrives in Turin ahead of switch from Fiorentina to Juventus
FIORENTINA'S Federico Bernardeschi has arrived in Turin to complete his £36million move to Juventus.
Chelsea and Manchester United have both been heavily linked with the Italian hotshot, but the 23-year-old has opted to stay in Serie A.
The Italian international has featured 72 times for the Viola in Serie A, but he has followed in the footsteps of Roberto Baggio and signed for the club's bitter rivals.
Fiorentina coach Stefano Pioli told reporters: "He's made up his mind.
"I've only spoken to him once on the telephone and I can't waste my energy thinking about what could have been.
"We just have to think about the future."
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is a known admirer of the Italian having handed him his international debut last year.
Manchester United also voiced their interest in Bernardeschi as potential a back-up buy if they fail in their pursuit for Inter Milan's Ivan Perisic.
Bernardeschi bagged 13 goals in 32 games last season for Stefano Pioli's side.
The 23-year-old's father Albert told ilbianconero.com:"Like Baggio, my son could also play for Juventus and that's a dream for any footballer who has the right ambitions.
"I'm a very happy, proud father right now, regardless of what could be about to happen."
