Federico Chiesa's agent has released a statement denying 'rumours' suggesting the Juventus forward has demanded almost £7 million per season to renew his contract. The Italy international is facing an uncertain future with the Serie A giants, with Liverpool and Newcastle United among the clubs linked with a summer move.
Chiesa has returned to action following a lengthy time on the sidelines due to a serious knee injury, but his relationship with Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has cast doubt over his role next season. The 25-year-old, who shone during Italy's triumph at Euro 2020, does not naturally fit into the manager's preferred 3-5-2 system.
The forward has two years left to run on his contract, and Juventus are said to be open to his sale and that of a number of first-team stars after missing out on Champions League qualification. Recent reports suggested Chiesa was said to be asking for €8 million per year to renew his deal, but agent Fali Ramadani has moved to dismiss these claims in Italian media.
