Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen reportedly came close to joining Juventus in January, only for his club to block the deal at the final moment.
Christensen has only made three Premier League appearances for the Blues this season, with Antonio Rudiger and David Luiz the first-choice centre-back partnership for Maurizio Sarri.
According to Calciomercato, Juve wanted to complete a loan deal for the Denmark international in the winter window, but Chelsea ultimately decided against allowing the 22-year-old to depart.
Christensen's father and agent, Sten Christensen, said back in October that the Dane would look to leave Stamford Bridge at the start of 2019 unless he became a first-team regular, which has not happened.
Barcelona were also linked with a January swoop for the centre-back, who played 40 times in all competitions for Chelsea during the 2017-18 campaign.
