Juventus star man Federico Chiesa is at a vital point in his career, with his current contract with the Turin giants expiring in the summer of 2025. Several sides, including Premier League giants Chelsea, Manchester United, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur, are said to have expressed early interest in the 26-year-old. However, the emergence of one particular Serie A club, the Bianconeri’s hottest rival, is expected to shake things up.
As per latest reports emerging from Italy, Scudetto title holders and Derby d’Italia rivals Inter are in the mix to lure the forward, whose arrival at the Meazza is reportedly dependent on one condition. It is only in the event that Chiesa remains at Juve until the end of his contract and moves on a free transfer that the Nerazzurri will jump into action, according to Corriere della Sera.
At the moment, his future at the Allianz Stadium is up in the air. Both the Bianconeri management and the player have been at a deadlock in contract negotiations since mid-2023. Chiesa’s persistent fitness problems over the past few years have also hindered his ability to perform decisively.
Chiesa has also been linked to various other Italian clubs, including Napoli and Roma. It is understood that the absence of UEFA Champions League football is a decisive factor as he completes four years at Juventus.
Our Take on the potential exit of Chiesa
The Fiorentina youth product’s exit links have been fueled by the most recent comments of Settignanese president Maurizio Romei, who first discovered Chiesa back in 2002. It will not be surprising to see Chiesa stay put for another season, under new manager Thiago Motta, but his presence on the transfer list is alarming for the Bianconeri faithful.
