Chelsea are prepared to sell Juan Cuadrado this summer just six months after he joined Fiorentina from £26.1m.

Cuadrado has struggled to make an impact at Stamford Bridge since moving to west London and started just four League games under manager Jose Mourinho.

But Cuadrado's problems have not put clubs off from declaring an interest with Juventus, Roma and Inter Milan all keen to bring the Colombia international back to Serie A, where he impressed for Udinese and Fiorentina.

However, so far the only offers that have been made have either been loan deals or for a fraction of the asking price.

Chelsea are making it clear to all parties that they will not consider loan agreements or making a loss on the Colombia international, so there is still a possibility he will stay.

There has been a lot of speculation that Cuadrado is also seeking a return to Italy, but it is understood Mourinho hasn't spoken with him since the end of last season.

He will get the chance to do that when Cuadrado joins Chelsea's pre-season tour tomorrow in New York having been given a longer break due to playing in Copa America.

Chelsea, who are still confident of signing Everton defender John Stones, have looked into buying Barcelona winger Pedro as a replacement.

But Mourinho said: "The market is open but wingers - I have Eden Hazard, Willian, Bertrand Traore, Victor Moses and Cuadrado. To go for somebody it's because I lose somebody.

"If I lose somebody, it's not because I want somebody in. It's because somebody wants to leave and because somebody brings the perfect offer for Chelsea to accept. At the moment I have five and I'm not going for a sixth."

Mourinho also confirmed Mohamed Salah, who angered Fiorentina by rejecting the chance to rejoin them on loan, is definitely not a part of his plans.

He added: “I see his future elsewhere, either as a loan or an offer that we are happy to accept. We have five players for these positions. It is better not to have so many.”

However, Chelsea are facing frustration in their desire to sign Augsburg left back Abdul Baba Rahman.

The 21-year-old has been earmarked to take Filipe Luis' place in the squad due to the latter's desire to return to Atletico Madrid.

However, Chelsea are demanding the £16m they paid Atletico for his services a year ago and the La Liga club, who are making attempts to sign him, have so far refused to do so.

Mourinho said: "If Atletico Madrid want him back then they have to pay and we have to discuss the offer.

"If he leaves then we have to react and we have to go in the market and find a replacement."

Rahman has already received an offer to join Roma, but is believed to favour a move to the English champions.
