Federico Chiesa Targets Summer Transfer Move, Romano Confirms

Federico Chiesa is set for a summer exit, with transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano confirming the Juventus winger has a clear plan for the upcoming window. The news, revealed in a recent interview, signals that Chiesa and his representatives are actively negotiating a move that could reshape his career.

Romano told reporters that Chiesa has identified a shortlist of clubs willing to meet Juventus' valuation and offer him a pivotal role. He emphasized that the player’s agent is in advanced talks, and that a decision could be reached before the transfer deadline. The journalist added that the Italian forward is keen on joining a team competing in the Champions League, aiming to test himself at the highest level.

At 27, Chiesa has become a cornerstone of Juventus' attack, contributing 12 goals and 9 assists this Serie A season. Yet, his desire for regular European football drives the push for a new challenge. A switch would also allow him to re‑establish his form after a series of injuries that limited his minutes last year. Moreover, a fresh environment could reignite his pace and creativity, traits that made him a standout at the 2022 World Cup.

Romano mentioned that Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur and Ligue 1 powerhouse Paris Saint‑Germain have expressed serious interest. Both clubs are reportedly prepared to meet Juventus' asking price, rumored to be around €45 million plus add‑ons. Tottenham’s manager has highlighted Chiesa’s versatility on the wing, while PSG sees him as a perfect complement to their attacking trio.

Juventus’ board appears ready to negotiate, but they will not let the winger leave for less than his market value. Club president Andrea Agnelli confirmed that any deal must include performance‑related bonuses and a sell‑on clause. The Serie A side also hopes to secure a replacement, scouting several young forwards to fill the void should Chiesa depart.

The summer window opens on 1 July, and Romano expects formal offers to start arriving within weeks. Fans can anticipate official statements from Juventus and the interested clubs as negotiations progress. If a deal materialises before the 31 August deadline, Chiesa could be unveiled at his new club’s pre‑season camp, ready to make an immediate impact.

Italy’s coach, Luciano Spalletti, has praised Chiesa’s contributions to the Azzurri, noting that consistent playing time is vital for his role in upcoming Euro 2028 qualifiers. A move to a club with regular Champions League fixtures could bolster his case for a starting berth, ensuring he remains a key option on the right flank.

The transfer saga is now the focal point of Italian football headlines, with supporters and pundits alike watching closely. Should Chiesa secure a move, it will mark a new chapter for a player whose speed and work‑rate have defined his reputation across Europe.
