Inter coach Antonio Conte has multiple ways of deploying Fiorentina forward Federico Chiesa should he join the Nerazzurri in the summer, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.
The report details how the player perfectly fits Conte’s tactical system. The 22-year-old Italian, who is contracted to the Viola until 2022, could be deployed as an attacking right wing back, a role currently filled by Antonio Candreva and Victor Moses. Chiesa could also play as a second striker alongside either Romelu Lukaku or Lautaro Martinez, or a little behind Lukaku alongside Christian Eriksen in a 3-4-2-1.
Chiesa has made 26 appearances across all competitions so far this season, for a total of 2117 minutes. In that time, he has scored seven goals and provided five assists, being a talismanic figure for the Florence based club and a favourite of club president Rocco Commisso, who convinced him to remain in Tuscany last summer.
