Chelsea can’t complete this transfer deal: Winger has to stay put

Cuadrado signed for Chelsea from Fiorentina under former manager Jose Mourinho in January 2015.

However, the Colombia international started just four Premier League games before being loaned to Juventus that summer.

Antonio Conte's appointment as Blues boss at the start of this season was expected to see Cuadrado given another chance to save his Stamford Bridge career.

But the ex-Fiorentina winger instead signed a surprise three-year loan deal to extend his stay with Juventus in Serie A.

Cuadrado has scored one goal and weighed in with four assists in Italy so far this season.

And the Daily Mail claim Chelsea cannot recall him from Juve – regardless of how he performs.

It is said the 28-year-old's contract did not include a recall clause traditionally inserted into loan contracts.
