Chiesa left Juventus in 2024, but the club’s management has changed this season, as well as the coach and several players.

According to the report, Chiesa has spoken to some of his old teammates and friends at Juventus, especially Dusan Vlahovic, Manuel Locatelli and Federico Gatti.

Multiple sources claim that Chiesa is open to returning to Juventus this month, but Liverpool are only going to discuss a permanent transfer, not a loan deal with an option to buy.

Tuttosport adds that Chiesa has only opened the door for a possible Juventus return and is not considering offers from any other club.

Juventus know they’d have no issues in convincing the player, but now they must find common ground with Liverpool.
