Il Secolo XIX: Milan and Inter line up late bids to exploit Juve’s Chiesa ‘paradox’ | OneFootball

Juventus made it clear to Federico Chiesa a few weeks ago that he is free to find a new clubs and although he is yet to do so, both AC Milan and Inter are reportedly weighing up a late move.

Juve began their 2024-25 Serie A campaign with a 3-0 win over newly-promoted Como last night but Chiesa was not on Thiago Motta’s list of players called up, in what was another clear sign that he is fully outside the plans.

Il Secolo XIX (via MilanNews) talk about a ‘paradoxical situation’ for Chiesa, one that will likely force Juventus to sell him for a discount so they do not have to pay him his high salary for the final year of his contract.

Both Inter and Milan are thinking about a last-minute move for the Italy international as per the source, taking advantage of the Bianconeri’s need to rid themselves of a problem while acknowledging the talent he has.

The Milanese clubs are thinking of putting a figure of around €10m on the table to try and tempt Juve, in case the situation regarding Chiesa’s exit is not resolved between now and the end of August and they therefore end up having to look for a compromise.
