Barcelona set to make first offer for Juventus star

The transfer saga involving Federico Chiesa and Barcelona is heating up, as the Catalan giants prepare to make their first formal offer to Juventus.

Scheduled for Thursday, a crucial meeting between Barcelona representatives and Chiesa’s agent, Fali Ramadani, aims to iron out the financial details before presenting the offer.

Juventus, having made it clear that Chiesa is not a part of Thiago Motta’s long-term plans, is expected to find common ground easily with Barcelona.

Reports indicate that Chiesa is willing to reduce his salary expectations to €4.5 million per season to facilitate the move, a significant step towards making the deal a reality.

The transfer fee, including bonuses, could amount to around €14 million. With Chiesa eager for a fresh start and Barcelona keen to bolster their squad, the coming hours are expected to be pivotal in finalizing the deal.

The potential move has sparked varied reactions among Juventus supporters. While some fans have voiced their displeasure with Chiesa, accusing him of ingratitude, others sympathize with his situation, understanding that he was sidelined by the club’s new management.

As negotiations progress, the football world is watching closely to see if this high-profile transfer will materialize or if any unexpected hurdles will arise at the last minute.
