Italian agent Oscar Damiani has dubbed Chelsea and Newcastle United linked winger Federico Chiesa a ‘bargain’ in the ongoing transfer window.
New Juventus coach Thiago Motta has made it clear that Chiesa is not part of his plans and the winger’s agent is looking for a new club.
A move to the Premier League has been mooted and Chelsea and Newcastle are weighing up the possibility of signing the Azzurri winger in the ongoing transfer window; Chelsea have already spoken to Juventus about a swap deal.
Damiani conceded that he is surprised that Chiesa is not part of Juventus’ plans as he feels the winger is still a quality player if he is used properly in a team.
The Italian agent believes any club signing the Italy winger this summer would be getting a quality player at a bargain price given his situation at Juventus.
Damiani told Italian outlet Tutto Mercato: “Chiesa is out of Juventus’ plans and it surprises me.
“He is motivated and if played in the right way, he still has qualities.
“Whoever signs him would be getting a bargain.”
It remains to be seen whether either Chelsea or Newcastle make a concrete offer to take him to the Premier League in the coming days.
