Manchester City reportedly join the race to sign Juventus and Italy winger Federico Chiesa this summer.

Manchester City have reportedly joined the race to sign Juventus winger Federico Chiesa this summer.

The 23-year-old was a standout performer for Italy at Euro 2020, scoring two goals in seven appearances, as Roberto Mancini's side went on to beat England in the final.

Chiesa only joined Juve in October 2020 on an initial two-year loan deal, with a conditional obligation to buy for around £34.5m plus add-ons.

However, the winger has been heavily linked with a summer exit, with Bayern Munich and Chelsea expressing their interest earlier in the window.

Thomas Tuchel's side were understood to have had an £85m bid rejected by Juve, who are not looking to sell the player under any circumstances.

Despite this, Premier League champions City have joined the race for Chiesa's signature, according to Calciomercato, and Pep Guardiola is a big admirer of the Italian.

Chiesa had an impressive campaign in front of goal for Juventus last season, scoring 15 goals and providing 11 assists in 46 appearances across all competitions.
