TURIN – Juventus will inaugurate their fifth signing of the 2020 summer transfer market, namely Federico Chiesa (Fiorentina). According to the transfer expert’s report The Gazzetta dello Sport, Alfredo Pedulla, Juventus will borrow Chiesa for a season at a cost of 10-12 million euros.
Then in the summer of 2021, Juventus will redeem Federico Chiesa for 60 million euros or the equivalent of Rp1, 04 trillion. It’s just that Juventus will not pay the nominal amount above, but pay it in four installments.

One thing is certain, the presence of Federico Chiesa made Juventus coach, Andrea Pirlo, slowly leave the 3-5-2 formation. Because, if Pirlo lowers a 3-5-2 formation, Chiesa will be placed as a wing back.
If placed as a right or left wing back, Chiesa’s maximum quality will not come out. In this pattern, Chiesa is required not only to attack, but also to help defense when Juventus get an attack from an opponent.
So, which pattern did Pirlo choose in line with the 22-year-old winger? There are two formations that Pirlo can choose from, namely 4-3-3- or 4-2-3-1. However, if you look at the composition of the current Juventus squad, Pirlo can play all of his best players in the midfield and front in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

In a 4-2-3-1 pattern, the double pivot midfielder position is entrusted to Aaron Ramsey and Weston McKennie. Ramsey, who has a Wales passport, was Pirlo’s mainstay in the first three matches to handle Juventus.
