Juve wants to sell one of its stars. The summer market continues to bring surprises, as Thiago Motta does not count on Chiesa for next season. The club’s goal was to renew the Italian winger’s contract, but the arrival of the new Juventus coach has completely stalled negotiations.
Chiesa has not been the same since he suffered a cruciate ligament rupture in 2022. After that injury, Chiesa has never been the player who was difficult to stop in a race and lost that “spark” that drove defenders crazy. Despite that, the winger was still a fundamental pillar in Juve’s scheme.
With Allegri on the bench, he was still one of the undisputed starters in a Juve without great stars. The Genoa native finished the 23-24 season with 10 goals in 37 games, being one of the most decisive players for the Turin team. But Chiesa’s time at Juve seems to be over. According to Fabrizio Romano, a journalist specializing in the transfer market, the player’s future is far from Turin.
For Thiago Motta, Juve’s new coach, the player is not indisputable as he was with Allegri. Chiesa’s contract expires in 2025 and the club had to decide whether to renew the player or find him an exit so that he does not become a free agent next year. In this way, despite the sporting director’s interest in renewing the player’s contract, the coach has pressured the club to find him an exit.
The coach’s idea is to shake up a team that did not perform as expected last season. In this way, Motta prefers to sell the player for a significant amount of money in order to reinforce different positions.
POSSIBLE DESTINATIONS
The player is still attractive to many European clubs. Despite not recovering the level that amazed the world during Euro 2020, the fact that his contract expires in 2025 makes him a more than interesting operation. According to various media reports, the player has received proposals from the Premier League and the Bundesliga in recent months. At the moment, the team most interested in the player is Bayern Munich.
