‘He needs trust’ – Juventus plan January rescue move for Liverpool winger Chiesa

Juventus are preparing a potential January rescue move for Federico Chiesa, with the Italian club believing a return to Turin could reignite both the player’s career and their own attacking ambitions.

According to Tuttosport, discussions are already underway behind the scenes, with Juventus viewing the deal as one that would “benefit everyone” involved.

Juventus are actively working on a move to re-sign Federico Chiesa from Liverpool during the current transfer window.

The proposed move has gathered momentum in Italy, to the point where Chiesa once again features prominently in Tuttosport’s coverage. Juventus see the winger as an immediate upgrade, capable of lifting attacking quality and adding proven Serie A experience to the squad.

There is also a clear belief that Chiesa would be a good fit for Luciano Spalletti, who is said to be an admirer of the player.

From Chiesa’s perspective, the motivation is equally strong. Now 28, regular football has become essential, particularly with the World Cup approaching.

Tuttosport report that the key issue is not ability, but confidence and continuity. The message from Italy is simple: “He needs trust.”

That trust has not been forthcoming at Liverpool under Arne Slot, prompting Chiesa’s camp to begin exploring exit options. A return to familiar surroundings is seen as the quickest way for the winger to rediscover rhythm and form.

Juventus believe the move represents a rare win-win scenario. Chiesa would regain a central role and consistent minutes, while the club would welcome back a player who understands the league and environment.

Liverpool, meanwhile, could sanction a sale that allows them to recoup a fee, particularly if Chiesa is not viewed as a long-term cornerstone under the current regime.

Tuttosport add that representatives from both Juventus and Chiesa’s side have already discussed the broad framework of a move and will continue talks in the coming days.

The major hurdle remains reaching an agreement with Liverpool. While intent exists on all sides, transfer mechanics — including valuation and structure — still need to be resolved before any deal can be completed.

Juventus are said to be seeking “greater guarantees” before pushing matters to a conclusion, but the expectation in Italy is that efforts will intensify as the window progresses.

Talks are expected to continue over the coming weeks as Juventus assess whether a deal with Liverpool is achievable in January. If common ground can be found, Chiesa’s return to Turin could quickly move from idea to reality.

For the player, the priority is clear: minutes, confidence and a clear path back to his best level.

Would a return to Juventus be the reset Federico Chiesa needs — or should Liverpool show more patience with the winger?
