We present the discovery and characterisation of two transiting planets observed by TESS in the light curves of the young and bright (V = 9.67) star HD73583 (TOI-560). We perform an intensive spectroscopic and photometric space- and ground-based follow-up in order to confirm and characterise the system. We found that HD73583 is a young (~500 Myr) active star with a rotational period of 12.08 ± 0.11 d, and a mass and radius of 0.73 ± 0.02 M_⊙ and 0.65 ± 0.02 R_⊙, respectively. HD 73583 b (P_b =$6.3980420 _{ - 0.0000062 } ^ { + 0.0000067 }$ d) has a mass and radius of $10.2 _{ - 3.1 } ^ { + 3.4 }$ M_⊕ and 2.79 ± 0.10 R_⊕, respectively, that gives a density of $2.58 _{ - 0.81 } ^ { + 0.95 }$ g cm^-3. HD 73583 c (P_c=$18.87974 _{ - 0.00074 } ^ { + 0.00086 }$ d) has a mass and radius of $9.7 _{ - 1.7 } ^ { + 1.8 }$ M_⊕ and $2.39 _{ - 0.09 } ^ { + 0.10 }$ R_⊕, respectively, this translates to a density of $3.88 _{ - 0.80 } ^ { + 0.91 }$ g cm^-3. Both planets are consistent with worlds made of a solid core surrounded by a volatile envelope. Because of their youth and host star brightness, they both are excellent candidates to perform transmission spectroscopy studies. We expect on-going atmospheric mass-loss for both planets caused by stellar irradiation. We estimate that the detection of evaporating signatures on H and He would be challenging, but doable with present and future instruments.
