ASTON VILLA NOW READY TO PAY £43M FOR ‘SPECIAL’ WINGER WITH ‘LIGHTNING SPEED’

According to Tuttosport, Aston Villa are interested in signing Federico Chiesa from Juventus in the summer transfer window.

The report in the Italian publication has claimed that Villa are ready to pay €50 million (£43 million) plus bonuses for Chiesa, who was described as “really special” by Juventus and Italy legend Gianluigi Buffon in La Gazzetta dello Sport in July 2021.

Newcastle United are also keen on the Italy international and are ready to offer €50 million (£43 million) plus bonuses for the 25-year-old, who has “lightning speed” according to Juventus’s official website.

Federico Chiesa would be a coup for Aston Villa

In our opinion, Juventus winger Federico Chiesa would be a brilliant signing for Aston Villa in the summer transfer window.

True, the 25-year-old has had injury problems in recent times, but he is a Euro 2020 winner with Italy.

Juventus do not sign players who are not good, and Chiesa is very good.

We believe that for £43 million, Chiesa would be a brilliant signing for Villa.

And he is only 25.

Chiesa’s best years are ahead of him.

Villa manager Unai Emery has extensive experience working with top-quality players, and the former Arsenal boss could get Chiesa back to his best.

Chiesa made six starts and 15 substitute appearances in Serie A for Juventus last campaign, scoring two goals and providing five assists in the process.

The Italy international made three starts and four substitute appearances in the UEFA Europa League for Juventus last season.

The winger scored one goal and gave one assist in those matches.

While Villa will not play in the UEFA Champions League next season, they are an established club in the Premier League and are aiming to progress.
