Pjanic on the streets of London
Chelsea are planning to go head-to-head with Barcelona in the race for Juventus playmaker Miralem Pjanic, reports the Daily Mail.
Maurizio Sarri has been lined up to replace Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge, and it's thought that the former Napoli boss is keen to bring Pjanic with him from Serie A.
The Blues could offer the Bosnian a significant increase on his current salary, with Juventus open to negotiations as they look to raise funds to sign Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The Italian giants are believed to want £70 million for Pjanic, as Barca also consider the 28-year-old as a potential successor to Andres Iniesta at the Camp Nou.

Golovin, 22, could be tempted by the influence of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich, according to the newspaper, sparking a bidding war between the clubs. That should help CSKA, who have said they will not let him leave for less than €25 million -- and Juve have only offered €15 million.

Arsenal want Banega next
With Arsenal on the verge of signing Lucas Torreira -- as confirmed by Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero -- Unai Emery has turned his attention to sealing a deal for Argentine midfielder Ever Banega.
According to Spanish journalist Kike Marin, the Gunners' boss hopes to be reunited with the 29-year-old this summer, having previously coached him at Sevilla.
Banega was part of the Spanish club's 2015 and 2016 Europa League triumphs, winning the man-of-the-match award in the 2015 final as Sevilla defeated Ukrainian side Dnipro.
Arsenal might have to wait to get their man, however, with the former Boca Juniors star currently representing Argentina at the World Cup.

If Jose Mourinho is planning to bid for Marko Arnautovic, he'd better do it soon.
The Manchester United boss was strongly linked with a £50 million move for the forward at the end of the season after watching him in Austria's friendly against Russia. No bid has been forthcoming, however, and Inter Milan is now looking to sneak in and tie up a transfer with West Ham.
The Serie A side will offer Joao Mario in part-exchange, according to reports in Italy, after the Portugal midfielder spent the second half of the season on loan with the Hammers.
Inter also want to bring in Bordeaux star Malcom on loan with a view to a permanent move next summer, says TalkSport.
