Jose Enrique has said on Instagram that there is no chance that Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will be able to sign Federico Chiesa from Juventus.

Federico Chiesa interest

According to La Repubblica, Liverpool are interested in signing Chiesa from Juventus in the summer transfer window.

The former Premier League champions are reported to have made a bid of €100 million (£85.55 million) for the Euro 2020 winner with Italy.

Juventus have turned it down.

We covered the report here on HITC Sport.

Jose Enrique’s verdict

Former Liverpool star Enrique believes that there is no chance that the Reds will be able to sign the 23-year-old winger from Juventus.

Could a Liverpool transfer happen?

That Juventus have turned down a big bid from Liverpool suggests that the former Italian champions are determined to keep Chiesa.

The 23-year-old winger is actually on a two-year loan deal at Juventus from Fiorentina.

For a transfer to happen now, Juve will have to sign the youngster on a permanent deal and then sell him to Liverpool.

Clearly, Juventus do not want to do that.

However, anything is possible when the transfer window is open.

Every player has his price.

If Liverpool increase their offer, then perhaps Juventus could be tempted.
