Juventus player Federico Chiesa has reportedly been offered to Barcelona despite recent rumours linking him with a move to Inter Milan.
According to Spanish media Sport, as reported by FCInterNewsThe Spanish giants have rekindled their interest in the Inter target.
Barcelona tried to attract Frederic Church at the Camp Nou last summer but in vain.
Juventus have rejected the La Liga club’s offer, with former coach Massimiliano Allegri trying to revive the winger’s career in Turin.
Allegri’s efforts failed when new boss Thiago Motta put Chiesa up for sale immediately after taking charge of the Bianconeri.
Inter consider Chiesa as an interesting commercial opportunity, but they would only negotiate his arrival on favourable terms.
Beppe Marotta would ideally sign the 26-year-old on a free transfer next summer.
However, Juventus are doing everything they can to negotiate Chiesa’s departure this summer.
Juventus have lowered their demands, determined to avoid recording a capital loss on a possible departure of the player on a free transfer.
After asking for 25-30 million euros to allow Chiesa’s transfer, they are ready to let him leave for just 10 million euros.
Inter and Manchester United are also in the running. But Chiesa could end up at Barcelona
The Nerazzurri could materialise their interest in the ex-Fiorentina star at the end of the summer.
Juventus offer Chiesa to Barcelona amid Manchester United and Inter rumours
Inter could use a player of Chiesa’s quality, but competition for his signature is fierce.
Manchester United have been long-term admirers of the Italy international, with Erik ten Hag keen to bring the winger to Old Trafford last summer.
With Antony and Jadon Sancho failing to live up to expectations, the Red Devils are once again on the trail of Chiesa.
All of this complicates Inter’s hopes of securing a bargain deal for the fringe Juventus player.
Barcelona must decide whether they want Chiesa as they hesitantly pursue Athletic Bilbao starlet Nico Williams.
