Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are just four of the clubs that have been recently linked with Federico Chiesa.

The Blues, the Gunners, the Lilywhites and the Magpies are all said to be on the case of the Juventus ace, who has been frozen out at the Serie A club.

Chelsea currently seem like the most active club in pursuit of Chiesa, but Tottenham are said to be keen on him too and north London rivals Arsenal have also shown interest.

Meanwhile, Newcastle are said to be pondering a move for Chiesa if Miguel Almiron leaves St James’ Park in the coming weeks.

Gianluca Di Marzio has now shared an update on the Chiesa front, claiming a Premier League club has made an attempt to sign the Italy international.

Chelsea attempt Federico Chiesa – Raheem Sterling swap deal

The club in question is Chelsea and, according to the Italian journalist, they have tried to arrange a swap deal involving Chiesa and Raheem Sterling.

Both clubs spoke about the potential move on Thursday, but the deal reportedly collapsed due to the difference in player valuations and wages.

The economic evaluations of the two clubs and the wage demands of the players represent the main obstacles, according to Di Marzio.

That said, it’s not the end of the story. Chelsea could well return for Chiesa, but only if they can first find a solution for the £50million England international.

Chiesa likely to leave Juve with Premier League clubs circling

With the Blues failing in their latest approach for Chiesa, this could present an opportunity for the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle to swoop in.

Chiesa doesn’t seem to have a future at Juve, so there’s a very good chance he’ll be leaving this summer.

Juve have stopped selling Chiesa shirts on their website, and according to Football Italia, he’s been frozen out of first-team training.

With a reported £35million price tag, the 26-year-old isn’t overly expensive, considering his immense talent.
