Liverpool might be Chiesa’s dream destination

According to Corriere dello Sport, Juventus is willing to pay attention to offers for the star playmaker worth over 60 million euros this summer. According to the media outlet, Liverpool, Manchester United, Magpies, and Aston Villa are in the ‘front row’ to sign Chiesa. The Bianconeri paid Fiorentina £51.4 million to sign him three years ago. Hence they now want a similar price to sell him. His current deal with the Old Lady expires in two years. In addition he makes roughly 5 million euros per season.

Moreover La Gazzetta Dello Sport reports that, Chiesa wants a new contract for 8 million euros per season (£132,000 per week) to extend his tenure in Turin. However, GdS stated that Juventus cannot afford such a price. However favourites Liverpool is willing to pay £132,000 per week to attract him.

Long-term injuries to a number of Liverpool’s top forwards were one of the causes for the club’s struggles last season. They want to ensure they have the depth to handle such circumstances next season. Despite Chiesa’s injury history, they are considering investing on the 25-year-old. Liverpool is willing to pay him roughly £132,000 per week. With Manchester United and Liverpool both keen to sign him, it will be exciting to see if either of them can secure his services.
