Chelsea have rejected a £57m bid for Oscar from Jiangsu Suning, according to The Sun.

The Chinese outfit snapped up Ramires from the Blues last month in a £25m and were seemingly keen to land his team-mate and compatriot Oscar.

But the Stamford Bridge hierarchy blocked the 24-year-old’s sale.

Although Oscar has regularly been linked with a move to Serie A champions Juventus over the past couple of seasons, but he is more of a first-team regular than Ramires, who had not started a Premier League game since Guus Hiddink took charge in December.

Jiangsu, who are close to completing the €50m signing of Shakhtar Donetsk’s Alex Teixeira, will reportedly return with a new bid for Oscar in the summer.

The same report claims they have also been in touch about a deal to sign Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure at the end of the current campaign. A £15m salary will reportedly be on the table.
