Arsenal have joined the hunt for Federico Chiesa, with Real Madrid and Liverpool keeping close tabs on the Juventus winger.
According to Calciomercatoweb, Federico Chiesa is a summer target for Arsenal. Things could spice up if Juventus fail to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. If the 25-year-old Italian international becomes available, other top clubs like Real Madrid and Liverpool will also assess on the winger’s situation.
Federico Chiesa is a top talent, and Juventus might have got him on the cheap, considering the market prices for wingers these days. The 25-year-old Italian international is only just returning from a serious injury but is fully expected to regain top form.
Juventus are in serious trouble after the recent FIGC ruling that docked 15 points off their tally this season. As things stand, they languish in mid-table. There are major concerns over their chances of qualifying for next season’s UEFA Champions League.
If that happens, Juventus will suffer with a heavy loss of European revenue. Amid the financial situation in Turin, they may have to sell a few notable stars. Chiesa could become transfer listed, and they might sell him if a considerable offer arrives.
There are no indications of how much Juventus might demand for the 25-year-old Italian international. They will certainly look to make a profit on their €42 million investment. And Arsenal have become the latest club to register an interest in joining Liverpool and Real Madrid in the hunt.
The Gunners are in a terrific position in the Premier League. Their recent win over Manchester United helped Arsenal open up a five-point lead over Manchester City with a game in hand. This month, they have strengthened by signing Leandro Trossard and defender Jakub Kiwior.
Arteta may also look to bring a new midfielder before the window shuts. Reports are suggesting Arsenal have already begun planning for the summer market, and their list includes a new winger. Chiesa could become a target for the Gunners as they might seek a high-profile winger.
Liverpool are keen on signing the 25-year-old Italian international, and Jurgen Klopp may lead the charge in the summer. They need a few high-profile attacking reinforcements in light of what has happened this season.
There is also the threat of Real Madrid, who will eye a new right-winger next summer. Generally, the move usually materialises when they enter the market for a specific player. However, the lure of England and Arsenal may prove tough for even the Spanish giants if the north Londoners chase the Italian international.
Chiesa will have a tough decision on his hands after the season. Other clubs could be coming in the frame for his signature, and Juventus might get tempted to sell if a good offer arrives.
