Manchester United, Chelsea and West Ham are all ‘following’ Federico Chiesa, according to his agent who has hinted he will be the subject of a last-minute move during the summer transfer window.
Chiesa is being strongly linked with a move away from Juventus and his agent, Fali Ramadani, has all but confirmed he will be leaving Turin.
The 26-year-old, who featured for Italy at Euro 2024, scored nine goals in 33 league games last season.
Despite being one of Juve’s key players when fit, Chiesa’s agent has suggested his client faces an uncertain future under new manager Thiago Motta.
If Chiesa does find himself looking for a new club, he will have no shortage of options, with his agent confirming Manchester United, Chelsea and West Ham have all been ‘following’ him.
Ramadani also named fellow Serie A club Napoli as a possible destination for Chiesa, who he says could be the subject of a move on transfer deadline day.
‘He is an outgoing player,’ he said. ‘The technical plans have changed and evidently the new coach does not see him among the primary players.
‘That said, if he continues to ask for a salary higher than €6m… I know that West Ham, Manchester United and Chelsea were following him.
‘I guarantee you that West Ham would not even give him €6m. Chelsea cannot do crazy things and United would go for other profiles.
‘Napoli? Maybe it could be the signing of August 30.’
Manchester United have completed two signings so far this summer, bringing French defender Leny Yoro and Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee to Old Trafford.
Chelsea have welcomed more than half a dozen new signings to Stamford Bridge, including midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and defender Tosin Adarabioyo.
West Ham, meanwhile, spent £40m to sign Max Kilman from Wolves and are closing in on a deal for Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
