Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United are determined to sign Federico Chiesa, but Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea pose a problem.
That is according to TuttoJuve, who has claimed that Arsenal, Newcastle and Chelsea all are interested in the Juventus forward.
So, what is being reported about Arsenal, Newcastle, Chelsea and Federico Chiesa?
Let’s take a look.
What’s the story?
Well, according to TuttoJuve, Newcastle United will try to sign Federico Chiesa from Juventus in the January transfer window.
Newcastle want Chiesa “at all costs” and will make a bid for him.
The problem for Newcastle is that Arsenal and Chelsea are also keen on the Italy international.
TuttoJuve has claimed that Arsenal and Chelsea have thought about making offers of their own for Chiesa.
What about Juventus’s stance on Chiesa?
Well, the Italian news outlet claims that Juventus want to hand the forward a new contract.
If Chiesa does not put pen to paper on a new deal by the end of the season, then the former Serie A champions will consider offers for him.
Chiesa is considering his future, according to TuttoJuve.
My View: Federico Chiesa won’t join Arsenal, Chelsea or Newcastle United in January
In my opinion, Federico Chiesa is not going to leave Juventus for Arsenal, Chelsea or Newcastle United in the January transfer window.
I do not see Juventus selling Chiesa at all in the middle of the season.
After all, Juve are challenging for the Scudetto this campaign.
There is a very good chance that the Turn club could end up winning Serie A this season.
Chiesa is an important player in Massimiliano Allegri.
Although the 26-year-old Italy international is a winger by trade, Allegri is using him as a centre-forward this season.
Chiesa has made nine starts and two substitute appearances in Serie A this season.
The Juventus no. 7 has scored four goals in those games.
The Italian star is under contract at Juventus until the summer of 2025.
