Juventus remain keen to offload Federico Chiesa before the end of the summer, while links with Inter Milan and other possible suitors persist.
The 26-year-old has found himself an outcast at Continassa since his return from the summer vacation.
New Juventus coach Thiago Motta doesn’t plan to rely on his services ahead of next season. The former Inter and PSG midfielder reportedly considers Chiesa inapt to his style of play.
Moreover, the Italy international is running on an expiring contract, so the management is looking to offload him to avoid losing his services for free next summer.
Motta has already omitted the player from the club’s last two friendly tests against Brest and Juventus Next Gen.
In the last hours, some suggested that the two parties could work on a solution to bring the player back to the fold.
Chiesa posted a photo of himself in a Juventus jersey on social media, thus fueling this theory.
Others claimed that the player’s father Enrico Chiesa has decided to intervene as he isn’t content with the work conducted by his son’s agent Fali Ramadani.
But according to Il Corriere della Sera via FcInterNews, the winger remains on the outs at Juventus.
The Bianconeri are still seeking a solution before the end of the summer transfer session. If the two parties fail to find a way out, Chiesa could risk spending the campaign on the sidelines.

News reports mentioned AS Roma, AC Milan and Napoli as potential admirers.
Moreover, some accounts claimed Juventus and Inter are pondering a swap between Chiesa and Davide Frattesi.
Nevertheless, other sources swiftly quashed this theory.
