Chelsea and Juventus clash for Vidal

Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal is hot property as both Chelsea and Juventus are keen on signing him up from Bayer Leverkusen.

The 24-year-old has been linked with an exit from the Bundesliga side, and Chelsea could look to snap him up after Michael Essien's injury.

However, the Barclays Premier League side will have to fight with Juventus, who are also keen on the player, with Bayer Leverkusen managing director Wolfgang Holzhauser admitting that talks are in progress with the Serie A side.

"I can affirm that we are talking with Juventus about Vidal," according to quotes from Tuttomercatoweb.com.

"It's now seemingly certain he will not be playing in Germany next season."

His current deal with Leverkusen runs out in 2012 and is currently rated at €15 million.
