Juventus have opened concrete talks over a potential reunion with Federico Chiesa, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and colleague Matteo Moretto. In their latest YouTube update, the duo revealed that the Bianconeri have held a first real contact with Chiesa’s representatives and Liverpool to gauge the feasibility of a deal.
The move positions Chiesa as a serious option to bolster Juventus’ attack under Luciano Spalletti. As Moretto explained, “It’s a name we’ve been tracking on the channel — discussed internally by the Juventus board around 30 or 31 December. Chiesa knows Serie A, knows the environment, and has the drive to prove himself after leaving unfinished business.”
Why Chiesa Fits Juventus
Chiesa’s familiarity with Turin makes him an appealing target. He thrived at Juventus from 2020 to 2024 before departing on deadline day in 2024, and now finds himself on the fringes at Liverpool under Arne Slot. With limited minutes at Anfield — despite moments like his opening Premier League goal and Player of the Month award in September — a return could reignite his career.
Moretto highlighted the tactical alignment: “Juventus signal their genuine interest. For his characteristics, he could be the right profile.” The club now awaits Liverpool’s stance, particularly as Arne Slot assesses attacking options amid fixture congestion and potential moves involving Mohamed Salah.
Deal Dynamics
A loan deal appears the most likely structure, allowing Juventus to add Serie A experience without major outlay. Liverpool hold a measured position — Chiesa remains valued for his impact off the bench — but the winger’s openness to Turin could sway negotiations. As Romano noted, “Real contacts are starting — we’ll see where Chiesa to Juventus leads.”
The situation remains fluid, with Chiesa motivated to rediscover his best form in familiar surroundings. Juventus’ internal evaluations have fast-tracked the approach, positioning it as a deal that could suit all parties by late January.
