Juventus Approach Zenit Striker To Replace Chiesa

Zenit striker, Sardar Azmoun, is the target of Juventus management.

TURIN -- Juventus began to take anticipatory steps for the loss of Federico Chiesa until the end of this season. The 24-year-old winger suffered a knee injury after defending the Bianconeri against AS Roma at the Stadio Olimpico, Monday (10/1/2022) early morning WIB. His ACL ligament was damaged and it took him at least six months to heal. Practically this season is over for the son of former Italy striker Enrico Chiesa.


As a result, the Old Lady is trying to find a replacement for Chiesa in the near future. Incidentally the winter transfer market is underway. The Bianconeri's management is ready to roll. One name on their radar.


"Juventus have identified Zenit striker Sardar Azmoun as a replacement for Federico Chiesa," reads the report quoted by Football Italia , Tuesday (11/1/2022).

Azmoun's contract at Saint Petersburg expires in June 2022, with six months remaining. According to Sky , Juventus have contacted the elite Russian team to discuss a transfer.

The Bianconeri hope to reach an agreement within this month. The reason is, it is difficult to get big-name players in the mid-season transfer market. The 27-year-old footballer has scored ten goals in 21 games so far this season.

However, Zenit must find a replacement for Azmoun first. After that they are ready to negotiate. Including letting the Iranian national figure go to Italy.

Azmoun is more characterized as a center forward. But he has speed like Chiesa.

Juventus are also looking for new ammunition in the midfield. The Bianconeri have been linked with Olympique Lyon midfielder Bruno Guimaraes. Guimaraes' contract at Lyon runs until June 2024. Two and a half years left.

Les Gones priced the Brazilian in the range of 45 million euros. The Old Lady wants to get the player by borrowing first. There is an option for them to permanent the status of the former Athletico Paranaense player.
