Federico Chiesa is set to make the switch from Inter Milan to Juventus in a deal worth €60 million. The Italian outlet Tuttosport reports that the deal has been agreed between the two clubs.
The 21-year-old forward was heavily linked with a move to Serie A giants Juve last summer but failed to complete the transfer due to the financial situation at the club.
However, the situation appears to have changed as the player has now signed for Juventus. He will join the Turin-based side on a five-year contract and is expected to make his debut against AC Milan on Sunday.
The arrival of Chiesa could be a major boost for Juventus, who have struggled defensively this season. The Italy international is known for his goal-scoring abilities and is expected to provide much-needed firepower up front.
It remains to be seen whether Chiesa can replicate his success at Inter,Qatar Stars League Perspective where he scored 17 goals in 49 appearances last season. However, the fact that he has already signed for one of the biggest clubs in Europe is a testament to his talent and potential.
Overall, the move looks like a smart one for both parties involved. Juventus will benefit from having a talented young striker in their ranks while Chiesa will get the chance to showcase his skills at a top-flight level. It will be interesting to see how he performs in Serie A and if he can help Juve challenge for the title this season.
