We at the moment are a full week into 2026 and the January switch window. It’s turning into even the extra apparent that there’s very a lot smoke in terms of the rising hearth of rumors that contain Juventus making an attempt to deliver again Federico Chiesa all of 18 months after they offered him to Liverpool.
In accordance with Sky Italia’s Gianluca Di Marzio on Thursday evening, Juventus have but to make a suggestion for his or her former No. 7 who now wears purple regularly. (Though, as we noticed Thursday evening, doesn’t precisely play all that usually lately.) Juventus’ essential want was to try to deliver Chiesa again to Turin on short-term mortgage cope with an choice to purchase. However, that might very nicely change barely, with Di Marzio saying the Bianconeri entrance workplace are persevering with their push to deliver Chiesa on this month and will provide a deal that’s the similar mortgage with choice to purchase components that turns into an obligation to purchase underneath sure situations.
What these situations may be most likely aren’t that tough to determine — appearances or minutes performed, potential Champions League qualification, and so forth. — however Di Marzio maintains that Liverpool will solely hearken to affords for Chiesa if it includes a everlasting deal. The reported value that Liverpool need for Chiesa is between €12 million and €15 million.
If you wish to know the place Chiesa stands within the pecking order, he was as soon as once more an unused sub in Liverpool’s scoreless draw in opposition to Premier League leaders Arsenal on Thursday evening. One other 90 minutes got here and went, and Chiesa solely touched the sector throughout pre-game warmups after which after the ultimate whistle when he shook the palms of his teammates. How for much longer these gamers are nonetheless his teammates stay to be seen.
There aren’t a ton of gamers being linked with a January transfer to Juventus proper now, however Juventus are clearly making an attempt to make a Chiesa reunion occur. Chiesa has further motivation to return to Serie A — be it with Juve or with any individual else like Roma or Napoli — contemplating he needs like hell to get again into the Italian nationwide crew image forward of attainable World Cup qualification. That’s not going to occur if he’s nonetheless caught to the bench with Liverpool a lot most of the time.
For now, although, we’re nonetheless ready for a suggestion to really occur. Then issues may very nicely be put in movement.
