Aston Villa are reportedly interested in signing 25-year-old Italian international Federico Chiesa this summer and ready to submit a bid for him.
According to a report by Tuttosport via Sport Witness, Aston Villa have taken concrete steps to sign Juventus winger Federico Chiesa. A separate update has revealed that they are ready to offer €60 million to sign the 25-year-old.
The player has been linked with clubs like Liverpool and Chelsea recently. So it will be interesting to see if he ends up in the Premier League. It is no secret that Aston Villa need to add more quality and depth to their attack. And the Italian international could prove to be a quality signing if he can stay fit.
Chiesa’s career has been plagued with injuries over the last couple of seasons. He has missed in excess of 60 matches due to fitness issues during that period, and he will be desperate to get his career back on track with regular football.
The 25-year-old was regarded as a world-class talent when he guided Italy to the European Championships. But he has not been able to continue his progress because of persistent injury problems. He will be hoping to put those injury issues behind him and continue his development with regular football in the coming seasons.
A move to Aston Villa might come as a step down for the Italian international, who was destined to join the elite clubs a few years ago. However, Aston Villa have an ambitious project and a talented squad. They have a top-class manager in Unai Emery at their disposal as well.
The Spanish manager could help Chiesa get back to his best, and he would have plenty of time to secure a big move in the near future. Aston Villa will be competing in Europe next season, and they need better players to do well on multiple fronts. And a report by Sky Italia has suggested they are willing to offer €60 million for the Italian international.
Chiesa can be a game-changer for them if he can hit the ground running in the Premier League. The 25-year-old will add pace, flair and goals to the Aston Villa attack. He is versatile enough to operate on either flank and could be an asset for the West Midlands club.
