Juventus offer attacker in swap deal for Kessie (reliability: 3 stars)

Juventus could offer Federico Chiesa in a swap deal for Franck Kessie, according to Calciomercato.

The Italian attacker reportedly likes Barcelona and would be thrilled to be tutored by Xavi.

It's now clear that Juve are serious about signing Kessie but it remains to be seen if Chiesa is a player Barca would be willing to sign considering they already have 8 attackers within their ranks with Joao Felix singing the 'come get me song' over in Madrid.

Last season the 25-year-old scored 15 goals and 12 assists in 46 games for Juve. That's despite enduring a difficult season in which he suffered all kinds of injuries and missed 14 games during the season.

According to Transfermarkt, Chiesa's market value stands at €40m with a contract until 2025.
