Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic turns down interest from long-term suitors Chelsea

Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic has made it clear that he has no intentions of leaving Spain for long-term chasers Chelsea in what is a major blow to the Blues who have been keen on signing the Bosnian player.

Reports from The Express claim that Pjanic who has faced considerable struggles for playing time this past season at Camp Nou is not eager on sealing a move to west London as he looks to leave FC Barcelona this summer.

With three years remaining on his current deal with the Catalan giants, Pjanic is believed to be after a return to Italy where he has played for AS Roma and then Juventus before making the move to Spain.

Chelsea had been involved in the running to sign the 31-year-old Pjanic since the player was at Juventus with the Blues looking to send Jorginho the other way but had pulled out of such an agreement in the later stages.

Jorginho has since transformed into an integral component of the Chelsea midfield and his recent rise as a pivotal link for the recently crowned Champions of Europe has come into much spotlight.
