Report: Juventus considering a January reunion with Federico Chiesa

In the summertime of 2024, with one 12 months left on his contract, Federico Chiesa was instructed by then-manage Thiago Motta that he wasn’t a part of the Juventus challenge and he needed to discover a new membership earlier than the beginning of the brand new season. It was a disappointing finish to an prolonged time frame wherein Chiesa’s agent and Juventus couldn’t comply with a brand new contract, thus leaving the membership with little possibility apart from to promote him for a small payment somewhat than lose him on a free 12 months later.

Almost a 12 months and a half later, Chiesa’s time at Liverpool has been extra about him not taking part in somewhat than lighting the Premier League on fireplace. It has include loads of rumors of him leaving Anfield. And people rumors are again once more, with a brand new membership being linked to the Italian winger — the identical membership he joined from Liverpool.

That’s proper, people. La Gazzetta dello Sport has reported on Tuesday that Chiesa is one in all three potential reinforcements that Damien Comolli and Co. need to present to Luciano Spalletti through the January switch window. It will be a outstanding flip of occasions for a participant who was frozen out of the squad in his remaining days with the membership, and mainly solid apart by a brand new Motta-led administration workforce that lasted all of 10 months in cost and presently simply amassing checks from Juventus to not coach somewhat than nonetheless be on the sidelines in Turin.

Contemplating Juventus’ monetary constraints amidst Monetary Honest Play considerations, any potential Chiesa signing can be with a formulation that entails a mortgage with an possibility to purchase come {the summertime}.

The opposite two names linked to Juventus by La Gazzetta are fullback Brooke Norton-Cuffy of Genoa and West Ham midfielder Guido Rodriguez, who’s out of contract come the summer time of 2026 and is being considered as a low-cost possibility within the heart of the park. However Chiesa, rightfully, is the largest identify and the headline grabber on this immediately massive rumor that’s being dropped on us simply two days earlier than 2026 arrives.

May Chiesa really come again contemplating those that mainly kicked him out of the membership are not round? I imply, I assume so. It’s definitely a clear slate of kinds with Motta and Cristiano Giuntoli not employed by Juventus and Comolli’s new-look entrance workplace now calling the photographs. There may need to be somewhat little bit of repairing of some bridges if it have been to occur, but it surely’s not like we don’t already know that Chiesa has an affinity for Juventus and would in all probability get pleasure from a second likelihood to show his price on the membership.

After all, issues are somewhat totally different now in comparison with when he left. Chiesa wouldn’t be a centerpiece of the assault like all of us thought he can be throughout his final couple of years in Turin. That may be very a lot now the position for Chiesa’s former teammate, Kenan Yildiz, who the 28-year-old Italian may very effectively be an alternate for as Juventus search an choice to not run the younger No. 10 into the bottom by season’s finish.

Chiesa has solely performed 222 minutes throughout 13 appearances within the Premier League this season. If he desires any likelihood of being part of Italy’s World Cup roster — ought to the Azzurri qualify, after all — then his taking part in time will certainly have to extend to show he generally is a participant that may make a distinction on the largest stage within the sport. Who is aware of if Juventus will likely be that place, but it surely’s changing into more and more apparent that Liverpool isn’t.
