Over the past few days, endless claims from Italy have stated Tottenham Hotspur could be the next destination for Juventus’ Federico Chiesa.
These claims intensified after the 26-year-old’s agent Fali Ramadani made a trip to London.
Tuesday’s edition of Corriere dello Sport picks up on that and mentions Tottenham as an option for the forward.
AS Roma and Napoli had looked at Chiesa, but they are no longer in the picture. This has seen Ramadani travel to England to gather interest from Tottenham and Chelsea. The report states there are no developments on this case, despite the agent’s trip to London.
Chiesa’s deal lasts until 2025 and he isn’t close to signing an extension. The Old Lady are looking to sell him this summer, to avoid losing him for free next year.
La Stampa, relayed by TuttoMercatoWeb, claim Juve technical director Cristiano Giuntoli has no plans to let the player leave for less than €25m.
Spurs aren’t looking for a striker, but the report indicates they could make an approach to sign Chiesa because the asking price is ‘considered a bargain’.
And that appears to be the key here. Tottenham are considering the deal on a bargain basis, which means Juventus and Chiesa’s agent need to be realistic with their demands.
Should no other club arrive then it’s likely they will be.
