The Bianconeri have attempted to re-sign the Colombian winger, who won an Italian double with them on loan last season, all summer.
Negotiations had appeared to bog down on multiple occassions but it appears there has been significant progress made, as Chelsea are now prepared to send him back to Turin on loan with obligation to buy.
The Blues have been convinced to release Cuadrado after Juventus agreed to a £20 million compulsory purchase option which will be linked to the number of appearances he makes.
Chelsea will also receive an immediate loan fee of £3m for the player who made a total of 40 appearances in all competition for the Italian champions last term.
Cuadrado's agent, Alessandro Lucci, met with Stamford Bridge officials in London on Tuesday after a successful meeting with Juventus directors on August 18 to renew the loan.
Antonio Conte had not wanted to lose the winger – having previously tried to sign him when he was Juventus manager – but failed to convince the 28-year-old to stay at Stamford Bridge, with his family preferring a return to Italy.
