The 22-year-old Italy international, who emerged from Fiorentina's youth system in 2016, had managed six goals and three assists in 23 Serie A appearances prior to coronavirus halting the season.
Commisso addressed Chiesa's future, while denying the club have offered the Viola star a new contract.
"We had a meeting before Christmas if I'm not mistaken," Commisso told Radio Bruno Toscana .
"If he wants to go then I'm sorry, but we'd accommodate him, providing the offer is fair. We must also see what he's worth.
"[His price] may have dropped since last year. It must suit everyone, although there's a chance that he'll stay.
"I haven't offered Federico anything. There hasn't been a proposal, it's fake news. The important thing is that a player wants to stay.
"Many players have understood that Fiorentina are aiming high. I don't want to put anything in Chiesa’s mouth, he’s a very good lad.
