• EXCLUSIVE from Graeme Bailey

HITC understands that several Premier League clubs have spoken to Federico Chiesa’s representatives in recent weeks.

The 26-year-old Juventus star is out of contract in Turin in 12 months and he has so far rebuffed their offer of a new contract.

Sources have told HITC that Juventus do not intend to table a new offer to Federico Chiesa and are now ready to sell him this summer.

Chiesa is open to joining a Premier League side this summer which has prompted talks to open with Chelsea, Tottenham and Newcastle United.

HITC understands that Arsenal and Liverpool have also been informed about Chiesa’s situation but have not taken the matter further.

European giants provide competition for Federico Chiesa

While Chiesa is open to joining a Premier League side this summer, he has also attracted plenty of interest from other European clubs.

La Liga giants Atletico Madrid have shown an interest in his signature while former Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi is also keen to bring him to Marseille.

However, HITC understands that the strongest interest in Chiesa to date is coming from Serie A duo Roma and Napoli.

Both Italian clubs have held talks with Chiesa but his representatives have assured his foreign suitors that he is ready to move abroad.

Chiesa received high praise from former Juventus and Italy teammate Giorgio Chiellini, who branded the winger “unstoppable” last year.

He endured a quiet Euro 2024 with Italy but ended his last Juve campaign with 10 goals and three assists across all competitions.
