ACF Fiorentina v Cagliari Calcio - Serie A
Federico Chiesa

Chiesa’s name probably isn’t one that is recognised much outside of Italy, but he looks like he could be a household name in the next few years. He is the son of former Italy striker Enrico Chiesa, who also played for Fiorentina during his career. At 20, his son is still at the beginning of his career, but has had a couple of encouraging years in Serie A.

He is already an important part of this Fiorentina side, having made 63 league appearances over the past two years, scoring nine goals in that time. He also made his Italy debut earlier on this year, and has now won five caps. He is very much a modern winger. He plays out on the left flank, and has the pace and skill to cut inside on to his stronger right foot. He has been highly sought after if reports are to be believed, but Chelsea, amongst others, may be put off by Fiorentina’s £62 million price tag.
