Juventus have built a reputation for recruiting young talent from within Europe, predominantly targeting those with sell-on value and immense potential.

Federico Chiesa would provide a good variety to Juventus’s attack.

According to Calciomercato (via Tuttosport), “Juventus haven’t lost hope of signing Federico Chiesa this summer, despite Fiorentina’s stance on the matter. La Viola value the player at no less than €70m, which is considered too much by the Bianconeri. However, to decrease the price tag, Juve are willing to include Demiral and Pellegrini in the negotiations.”

Fiorentina are reluctant to let Chiesa go, but a big enough bid could persuade them to sell.

Signing the 21-year-old in the summer transfer window would be a masterstroke from Maurizio Sarri.

Stylistically, he would be a great fit in Juventus.

How strong that interest is and whether Juventus will make a move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
