Juventus have signed Federico Chiesa from Fiorentina on a loan with an obligation to buy him at €50m after two years.
The 22-year-old winger is already a proven performer in Serie A, having made 137 top-flight appearances. His impressive performances, meanwhile, have not gone unnoticed. In fact, Manchester United and Chelsea were reportedly keen on him earlier in the year along with Inter Milan.
But Juventus have got their man just in the brink of time ahead of Monday night’s transfer deadline. Fabrizio Romano has reported a loan deal, which will last two years, and a €50m obligation to buy is in place.

The Italian is currently undergoing a medical with Juve likely to make an official announcement in the coming hours.
Chiesa is Andrea Pirlo’s sixth new signing of the current transfer window. The Bianconeri boss has already welcomed Arthur, Rolando Mandragora, Alvaro Morata, Weston McKennie, and Stefano Gori.
