Seriously doubt that, but i dont doubt the interest from Chelsea.
The media love to make out that Chelsea are the super dooper spenders, but if you look at their actual transfers, they have spent alot on players, but nothing above 30 million euros.
I would say a reasonable sum for zambrotta would be 20-25 million euros.

The Italian international has been heavily linked with a switch to the English champions as they look to fill the left-back role for next season with a move for Ashley Cole now looking unlikely.
However, Zambrotta's agent Beppe Bonetto has been quoted in the Italian press as saying: "I can categorically exclude the possibility that he will leave Juventus.
"The Bianconeri just won’t sell him and not even a massive offer would be enough to tempt them to think about it."

Did they ever say he wouldnt be signed for a replacement? Anyway, what would the sense be in singing him then?
Miccoli did play well at juve imo, but that is a different story open to debate so ill leave you with your opinion.
But just because it isnt a guarantuee, doesnt mean it wont happen. We effectively take a risk on every player we sign.

Juventus buys a lot of players and very few of them make it to the first team squad. Like you say it is a risk every time.
Anycase, I think we're pretty much at the same wavelength in the signing question. What I really want to point out is that it is too risky to sell Zambrotta and assume that Chiellini will take his place.

I agree to a certain extent, but Juventus are known for taking risks in selling off their big players and replacing them with younger players with potential. Sure, sometimes it doesnt work but we do it. Im not confident with chelini's ability if i am to be honest, but history of the club shows that its probably going to happen ( DP replacing baggio for one)
Yea, but if you think of the immediate future, you'd see there is no sense in selling Zambrotta. To start with, the core of this squad is pretty much going to be on its way out in a couple of years at the most. Thuram, Nedved, Del Piero, Cannavaro, Zambrotta and Gigi imo make up the core of the squad. They now have an understanding of the system and the Juventus style. However, they arent getting younger and that means theyre not going to be around forever. Zambrotta is the one player who would help keep the squad together at that point of time, maybe followed by Camoranesi, Emerson and the like, as they inspire the new young talents and help them emerge with that Juve spirit. Zambro imo is the ideal candidate to help Juve make the transition with its new generation of players. It bodes well for the future to have him around, and im pretty sure everybody at the club realises that.
