In one of the most protracted transfer sagas of the 2024 summer of football, it appears that Federico Chiesa’s stay at Juventus is set to come to an end, with Liverpool in the English Premier League ready to take on board the Italian international.
Mixed feelings are sure to overcome fans of the Old Lady, with Chiesa’s talent and influence for Juventus unquestioned but with a few queries over his role within the wider squad dynamic and his patchy injury record, it appears Juventus have opted to cut their losses.
As with most periods of Chiesa’s career, this move seems to be all or nothing. He could either turn out to be a huge hit at Anfield or struggle with injury troubles that could diminish his impact.
For the time being, new Juventus manager Thiago Motta looks to have no reason to miss Chiesa, with Juve having won their opening two Serie A games but there is always a feeling of what if with a player of Chiesa’s undoubted potential.
With time running out in the transfer window too, Juventus may need to move quickly if they are to replace Chiesa and if they do, they could be looking to sign some of the most potent attacking talents in Europe and beyond.
Changes afoot
Whilst the pros and cons of Chiesa leaving Turin could be debated for hours, the fact remains that the 26-year-old is heading to Liverpool and Juventus will need to adapt to life without his services.
As with any big transfer, the accompanying betting markets are often awash with the knock-on effect of one move and with Chiesa heading to the red side of Merseyside, there is a clamour from punters and online sports betting sites as to who could come in and replace Chiesa at Juve.
A big part of the Thiago Motta coaching mantra looks to be giving young talent an opportunity and both Andrea Cambiaso and Samuel Mbangula are the key beneficiaries of how Motta is attempting to go about things, and they have come into the starting XI in place of Chiesa from last season.
