Liverpool have made an initial approach for Juventus winger Federico Chiesa, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Italian club is looking to offload the 26-year-old, and Liverpool have expressed interest in bringing him to the Premier League.
Juventus’ Stance on Chiesa
Juventus have been actively seeking a solution for Chiesa’s future, with manager Thiago Motta confirming on 18 August that the player is not in the club’s plans. This follows Chiesa’s omission from the squad earlier this month, indicating a clear intention to sell.
Liverpool’s Interest
Liverpool are currently exploring the conditions of a potential deal. Chiesa, who is keen on a move to the Premier League, could be a viable option for the Reds as they look to strengthen their squad in the final days of the transfer window.
Background on Federico Chiesa
Chiesa, known for his pace and dribbling skills, has had a notable career with Juventus and previously Fiorentina. Juventus have set a price tag of €25 million for the winger, as reported on 5 July. The player’s future has been a topic of discussion throughout the summer, with multiple reports indicating Juventus’ intention to sell.
Liverpool’s contact with Chiesa today marks a significant step in what could be a key transfer for both the player and the club.
