# Juventus lead Liverpool in Chiesa chase

Juventus are reportedly leading the race to sign Liverpool target Federico Chiesa from Fiorentina this summer.

The Reds had been [linked](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2019/03/22/liverpool-will-have-to-pay-e100m-to-sign-chiesa/) with a move to sign the winger following his impressive performances throughout the campaign.

Since bursting onto the scene as a promising youngster, Chiesa has established himself as a talismanic figure for Fiorentina and has caught the eye with several standout displays in Serie A.

This appears to have piqued the interest of a host of clubs from all across Europe, including Liverpool.

However, the Reds do not appear to be in with the most substantial chance of recruiting the Italian international. According to claims from Rai Sport, as cited in a report from [Calciomercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/juve-in-vantaggio-su-chiesa-49846), Juve are leading the race.

Massimiliano Allegri’s side appear to be heading for yet another Serie A title, and they seem intent on adding to their squad’s attacking options.

Whether or not Liverpool will oppose their Italian counterparts in the race for Chiesa’s signature remains to be seen.
