Juventus are prioritising securing Federico Chiesa’s long-term commitment and bolstering their midfield in the upcoming transfer window.
The news of Chiesa’s return to training after a minor illness is certainly a positive development for Juventus. However, manager Massimiliano Allegri’s cautious approach, suggesting Chiesa was only halfway fit before the Salernitana match, underscores lingering concerns about the winger’s full recovery.
Juventus’ faith in Chiesa remains unwavering despite the recent fitness worries. Reports from Sky Sport via TJ suggest the club is prioritizing a contract extension for the winger, whose current deal expires in 2025.
Talks are expected to take place at the end of the season, aiming to solidify Chiesa’s long-term future and build the attack around him. Securing his commitment would be a significant boost for Juventus’ future plans.

Rabiot’s Contract Conundrum: A Wrench in the Works?
The situation with Adrien Rabiot presents a different kind of challenge. The French midfielder’s contract expires in June, leaving his future uncertain. While Juventus reportedly remain confident of reaching a compromise, a definitive answer is yet to be reached.
Juventus’ midfield revamp this summer will likely be heavily influenced by Rabiot’s decision. If he chooses to depart, the Bianconeri will be forced to find a suitable replacement.
Names like Teun Koopmeiners, Lazar Samardzic and Kephren Thuram, just to name a few, have been floated as potential targets. However, if Rabiot commits his future to Juventus, the transfer activity might shift towards bolstering other areas as priorities.
