The ɾєρօɾτ adds thatJuventushave set an asking price of around £38m, with Liverpool, Newcastle United, and Bayern Munich all interested in the winger.
However, Italian outletLa Reppublicahave also claimed thatArsenalare the latest club to register their interest in Chiesa.
Unfortunately, Chiesa has struggled with fitness during his time atJuventus.
Since the 2020/2021 season, Chiesa has missed 66 games with various injuries, including a cruciate ligament rupture, as perTransfermarkt.
The fitness problems over the last few years may be an issue for the Gunners, but he’d certainly bring them more quality in attack.
His versatility could be crucial as they prepare for Champions League football next campaign,
Chiesa has played all across the front threeduring his career, as well as in a centre-forward role.
What has Jones said about Chiesa?
Jones has suggested that Chiesa would be ‘awesome’ in Arsenal’s attack.
Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, he said:”I love Chiesa and I’ve always hoped he would one day land in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see how this summer window pans out for him. He’s obviously had some ιɴjυɾу problems in the not too distant past. He’s such an exciting player.
“You can imagine he would be awesome in thatArsenalattack too. I’m not convinced it’ll be that easy to sign him though, I’m really not.”
What can Chiesa bring to Arsenal?
Chiesa has scored67 goals and provided 49 assistsacross spells with Fiorentina andJuventus.
The Italy international’s ability to play on the right and left-hand side will be a huge boost for Arteta, especially considering the lack of cover for Bukayo Saka.
Although Chiesa may struggle to displace Gabriel Martinelli and Saka in the starting eleven, having a deeper squad with European football is crucial.
