Leonardo Bonucci: Chelsea and Manchester City ready to return for Juventus ace following bust-up with Massimiliano Allegri

CHELSEA and Manchester City are reportedly ready to return for Leonardo Bonucci following the Juventus star’s recent bust-up with boss Massimiliano Allegri.

The English duo were desperate to sign Bonucci last summer as they plotted their paths towards Premier League dominance.

But the Italian superstar opted to stay in Turin and ended up penning a new five-year contract in December.

However, Bonucci’s future appears to be in the air once again after clashing with his manager at the weekend.

A touchline argument saw the 29-year-old receive a fine and he has also been dropped for tonight’s Champions League clash against Porto.

Bonucci remains a key player for Juventus but claims he will now consider his future in the wake of the incident.

And that’s prompting fresh interest from Chelsea and Man City, who are ready to offer the Italy international a second bite of the Premier League cherry.

But City claimed in October that Bonucci was keen to work with Pep Guardiola, and he could yet take up a big-money offer at the Etihad.
