Juventus will fight Chelsea, Inter, Napoli and Bayern Munich for Fiorentina winger Federico Chiesa, according to Tuttosport.

The Italian newspaper believes that CEO Beppe Marotta and sporting director Fabio Paratici are both keen on the 20 year old, with the club always on the lookout for young Italian talent.

Juve signed a winger from Fiorentina just last summer in Federico Bernardeschi, and it seems the club are now lining up a move for another young Viola star after Chiesa’s impressive start to the Serie A season.

The Italian under 21 international has scored four goals and provided three assists in 14 league matches so far this campaign, and he was rewarded with a new five year contract just last month.

The new deal has not put off potential suitors though. The Corriere Dello Sport reported last week that Chelsea, along with a number of other clubs, were lining up summer bids for the winger.
