CHELSEA have received a huge transfer boost as Juventus have pulled out of a potential deal to sign Jadon Sancho, a report claims.

The Blues are now in a race to sign the Manchester United outcast before the transfer deadline at 11pm on Friday night.

Juventus and Chelsea were both interested in the winger and the Series A side had high hopes of signing the Red Devils outcast on loan this season.

But according to Sky Italy’s Gianluca Di Marzio, the Italian giants have pulled out of the running for the star.

The report added Chelsea are still in talks for Sancho during the final hours of the transfer window.

The former Borussia Dortmund star has been on the radar at Stamford Bridge as reports of a possible swap deal for Raheem Sterling have been rife.

Sancho has had a tricky time at Man United as he has struggled for form, been exiled and loaned out before being brought back into the team by Erik ten Hag.

The winger has not featured in the Premier League this season and could benefit from a fresh start in West London.

And United are prepared to take a £38m hit on the winger, who they signed for £73m from Dortmund in 2021.

Chelsea’s late push for Sancho could see Blues outcast Sterling end up at Old Trafford.

Sterling is currently training away from the first team after Blues boss Enzo Maresca confirmed there is no place for the former England star in his squad.

Maresca said: “The ones who are not involved don’t get minutes if they stay.

“It’s not just Raheem. It’s all the players who  are training apart.”

The Blues also want to sell Trevoh Chalobah, Ben Chilwell and Armando Broja.
