Juventus’ new manager, Thiago Motta, is conducting a significant squad overhaul at the Allianz Stadium and aims to offload up to eight players this summer.
Arsenal is interested in Chiesa, and his representatives have reportedly been in London, negotiating with both the Gunners and Chelsea.
The winger is also keen to test himself in the Premier League. Juventus’ manager confirmed the decision to offload Chiesa and seven others after their latest friendly game.
“They are out of the project and they have to find a new club,” said Motta during a press conference after a 2-2 pre-season friendly against Brest, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
“We are convinced this is the best decision possible.”
Arsenal has been following Nico Williams since the end of Euro 2024, but the Spaniard is unlikely to move to North London this summer. Chiesa could be a suitable alternative.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Chiesa has regressed in recent seasons; however, we can sign him if he is cheap, and he might improve in our more attacking system.

With money tight (tighter until Arsenal can add to the sale of ESR) do we really want to buy him if offered?
He’s got 21 goals in just under 100 games for The Old Lady. Is that “killer striker” territory? Are there better options, albeit probably more expensive ones, out there? Can’t Thierry dust off his boots for one last campaign?
