Juventus has significantly reduced its asking price for Italian winger Federico Chiesa, signaling a clear intent to part ways with the player this summer. The Serie A powerhouse has lowered Chiesa’s valuation from an initial €25 million to just €15 million, according to reports from Mirko di Natale.
This dramatic price cut comes in the wake of Juventus manager Thiago Motta’s public statements suggesting Chiesa is no longer part of the club’s plans. The 26-year-old was notably absent from the squad for Juventus’ recent friendly match against Brest, further fueling speculation about his imminent departure.
The reduced price tag is likely to attract increased interest from several top European clubs. Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, Napoli, and potentially even Inter Milan are among the teams reportedly monitoring Chiesa’s situation.
Juventus’ urgency to sell stems from Chiesa’s contract situation – with his current deal set to expire in 2025, the club risks losing him on a free transfer next summer if they cannot facilitate a move now. This explains their willingness to accept a significantly lower fee than Chiesa’s perceived market value.
As the transfer window progresses, it will be interesting to see which club takes advantage of this opportunity to acquire a talented player at a discounted price. For Juventus, the priority appears to be securing some return on their investment rather than risk losing Chiesa for nothing in a year’s time.
