Newcastle United are reportedly keen on signing Italian international winger Federico Chiesa, whose price tag is €55-60 million.
A report by La Repubblica via Sport Witness claims that Newcastle United have now made a fresh move to sign Federico Chiesa. And they have established contacts to discuss a potential transfer for the 25-year-old winger, whose price tag is €55-60 million.
Chiesa has been linked with a move away from Juventus all summer, and it will be interesting to see if he manages to secure a move away from Italy. The 25-year-old winger is valued at around €55-60 million.
The player has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs in recent weeks, and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Newcastle United. The Magpies should look to bring in an upgrade on Allan Saint-Maximin this summer.
The Frenchman has been a major hit since his move to Newcastle. But his inconsistencies are a major problem. The Magpies will be competing in the UEFA Champions League next season, and they need players who can consistently put up impressive performances.
Chiesa has the ability to develop into a key player for Newcastle United in the coming seasons. The 25-year-old was regarded as one of the best young attackers in the world during Italy’s European Championship-winning campaign.
However, his development has halted because of persistent injury problems. It seems that the Italian international has finally gotten over his injury nightmare. So it will be interesting to see if he can get his career back on track with regular football now.
There is no doubt that he would improve Newcastle going forward. Chiesa is versatile enough to operate on either flank, and he will add pace, flair, creativity and goals to the side. Although the reported €55-60 million asking price seems steep Newcastle have the resources to pay up, and the 25-year-old certainly has the talent to justify the investment in the long run.
Newcastle United managed to finish in the Champions League positions last season, and they will be hoping to improve on that this time around. They will be looking to compete for major trophies, and they need to bring in quality acquisitions like Chiesa in order to compete with the elite.
