Federico Chiesa is reportedly stalling on a move to AS Roma as he prefers to join a club in the English Premier League.

Juventus and AS Roma have reportedly agreed a deal for the transfer of Federico Chiesa.

The Italy international has just one year left on his contract and a renewal has been ruled out, especially as he is not part of the tactical plans for new coach Thiago Motta.
