Federico Chiesa’s situation at Juventus appears to be reaching a critical point, with the player and the club eagerly awaiting a resolution. Since being left out of the squad by manager Thiago Motta, Chiesa has instructed his agent to explore potential transfer options.
Calciomercato report how after months of discussions with Italian clubs like Milan, Roma, Napoli, and Inter – primarily regarding a potential free transfer next season – Chiesa’s agent, Fali Ramadani, has found an opening for an immediate move to Barcelona.
The Catalan club, having failed in their pursuit of Nico Williams, is now scouring the market for an attacking winger with similar characteristics – someone skilled in tight spaces and quick to exploit depth. While Rafael Leao was initially considered, the strongest push in recent hours has been for Federico Chiesa.
The negotiation is currently in the hands of the player, who needs to reach an economic agreement with Barcelona. Juventus is prepared to let Chiesa depart for a fee of €15 million and is waiting to see if the player, who has now placed the Catalan club at the top of his preference list, will finalize the deal.
