​​Tribal Football has reported that Juventus defender Stephan Lichtsteiner has agreed to join his former coach Antonio Conte at Chelsea on a three-year deal.





The Switzerland international is expected to make the switch to the Premier League once Dani Alves' proposed move to Turin from Barcelona is completed, with Juventus likely to receive a fee in the region of £8.5m for the full back.





Tribal Football writer Emanuele Giulianelli took to Twitter to reveal Lichtsteiner's plans once the upcoming Euro 2016 Championships end in mid-July.

Lichtsteiner and Conte previously worked together during the latter's time as head coach of Juventus.





Conte, 46, managed his former club between 2011 and 2014, before taking up the reigns as the head coach of home nation Italy.





The former Atalanta and Siena boss is due to take charge of Chelsea after this summer's Euros, and will become the Stamford Bridge side's first permanent head coach since ex-manager Jose Mourinho was sacked in December 2015 - Guss Hiddink having been in interim charge in London since then.







Lichtsteiner joined Juventus from fellow Serie A oufit Lazio for £7.5m in the summer of 2011.

The right back has gone on to feature 197 times for the I Bianconeri since joining, scoring 14 goals and creating 23 others for his team-mates in the seasons that followed.





During his time with Juventus, Lichtsteiner has won five successive Serie A titles, three Italian Super Cups and two Italian Cups as 32-time league winners have dominated Italy's domestic competitions.







The 32-year-old is expected to be part of Switzerland's 23-man party for the upcoming Euro 2016 tournament, and has amassed 80 caps for the Swiss senior national side after making his debut in November 2006.
