Coppa Italia football returns to Sky Sports this week - and Antonio Conte may well be tuning in. The Italy boss is expected to agree a three-year deal to take over at Chelsea from this summer, according to Sky in Italy, and a number of potential transfer targets will be in action in the semi-finals of the Italian cup.Ahead of AC Milans Tuesday tie with minnows Alessandria and Juventus Wednesday trip to Inter Milan, we look at four players involved who have been linked with a summer switch to Chelsea and one who is currently on loan from the Blues. Remember, you can see both semi-final ties live on Sky Sports from 7.40 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday... How it stands AC Milan (1) v Alessandria (0)Inter (0) v Juventus (3) Paul Pogba Paul Pogba was signed by Conte at Juventus One of the most highly-rated midfielders in Europe, Paul Pogba has emerged as a key figure for Juventus since Conte signed him from Manchester United in 2012. The Frenchman is regularly linked with moves to other major European clubs but could a reunion with Conte be on the cards this summer?Pogba has previously praised Conte for giving him game time and pushing him to improve and Italian paper Tuttosport reported in February that the Italy boss was keen on a reunion at Stamford Bridge. Leonardo Bonucci & Giorgio Chiellini Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini are key defenders for Juve Juventus defenders Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini are also reportedly on Contes wishlist, should he complete his move to Chelsea, say Tuttosport - and, with John Terry seemingly on his way out of Stamford Bridge when his contract expires this summer, Chelsea will need to look at defensive options. The Italian pair are regulars at the heart of Juves defence and won three Serie A titles under Conte in 2011/12, 2012/13 and 2013/14.Alessio Romagnoli Young AC Milan defender Alessio Romagnoli has impressed this season Another defensive option for Conte at Chelsea could be AC Milans Alessio Romagnoli, however, any deal for the 21-year-old - as suggested by reports in Italy - would likely be an expensive one. The Italy U21 international has impressed since his move to Milan last summer from Roma, becoming a first-choice for Sinisa Mihajlovics side. With just one goal separating Milan and Alessandria, Romagnoli cannot afford to make any mistakes on Tuesday night. Juan Cuadrado Juan Cuadrado is on loan at Juventus from Chelsea Chelsea loanee Juan Cuadrado returned to Italy last summer with a loan spell at Juventus, in a bid to re-find his Fiorentina form of 2014, which had earned him a £23.3m to London. The Colombian has made 12 league starts and eight substitute appearances so far this season for the Serie A leaders, scoring three goals and registering four assists.With the 27-year-old due to return to Chelsea in the summer, with three years still to run on his contract, could Conte find a way to get the best out of him?Watch AC Milan v Alessandria on Tuesday on Sky Sports 1 HD and Inter Milan v Juventus on Wednesday on Sky Sports 2 HD - both from 7.40pm.
