Despite serious interest from Chelsea, Juventus have been quick to close any advances from the side for the transfer of Federico Chiesa
While Chelsea are yet to rope in a new name in the 2021-22 summer transfer window, thereโs no creating a ruse over their ambitions. With Thomas Tuchel winning over Roman Abramovich by winning the Champions League in only five months at the club, the Russian owner is willing to loosen his pockets to back the German.
While its blatantly clear that Borussia Dortmundโs Erling Haaland is Chelseaโs main man, the club is set to be keeping an eye out on a raft of other worldclass names as well. With money to burn at his disposal, Roman is willing to do what it takes to assemble the most lethal squad for the 2021-22 season.
And one name who has caught his liking is Juventusโ Federico Chiesa. The Italian won the world over with his enigmatic performances in Euro 2020 with his showing in the summit clash elevating him to gargantuan level.
Juventus Shut Down Chelsea Offer For Federico Chiesa
One club which has been enticed by him is Chelsea with the club sending in an offer for negotiations to Juventus. Despite Juventus slapping a 100 million pound price tag on the player, Chelsea are said to be unperturbed by the asking price.
However, Juventus have been extremely quick to assert that the player is not for sale. Christian Falk has gone onto report that the men in power at Juventus have refused to entertain any talks with Chelsea transfer chief Mariaย Granovskaia.

As perย Calciomercato, the Jurgen Klopp lead side holds a keen interest in Chiesa as well.
