The Blues boss is keen to add 3 0r 4 players to the squad during the summer months and the 24-year-old Juventus midfielder is one of a number of players that have come to his attention. "There are a few players we are looking at and Appiah is on the list," Bruce has said. "We've been scouring the market for months and months and he's one we are monitoring and we'll see what the situation is with him."
Appiah has struggled to hold down a regular place at Juventus and although he still has three years to run on his contract with the Italian side it appears he could be set for a move away from Turin.
Middlesbrough (as always!), Newcastle, Everton, Portsmouth, Fiorentina and Bologna are all also rumoured to be interested in the player.
