Federico Chiesa is reportedly open to a move to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Liverpool are interested in signing Federico Chiesa from Juventus in the summer transfer window.
The report in the Italian news outlet has claimed that Newcastle United are also keen on the Italy international.
Former Serie A champions Juventus are willing to sell Chiesa, but they want at least €55 million (£47.25 million) in transfer fees for him.
The player himself is open to a move to Liverpool, who need to offload a forward to get a deal done for the 25-year-old former Fiorentina star, who is “often simply unstoppable for his opponents” according to Juventus’s official website and was described as “really special” by Juve and Italy legend Gianluigi Buffon in La Gazzetta dello Sport in July 2021.
Liverpool should think twice about signing Federico Chiesa
We do not think that Liverpool should rush into signing Federico Chiesa from Juventus in the summer transfer window.
Yes, the Italian is a very good winger, but he is just coming back from a long-term injury.
We do not know yet if the winger will be able to get back to the level he was before his injury.
Chiesa made six starts and 15 substitute appearances in Serie A for Juventus last campaign.
The winger scored two goals and gave five assists in those matches.
The Italy international made three starts and four substitute appearances in the UEFA Europa League for Juve last season.
Chiesa scored one goal and gave one assist in those matches.
If Liverpool have to offload a forward to get Chiesa, then it is going to be tricky for manager Jurgen Klopp.
Which forward is Klopp going to get rid of?
Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo, Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez are the main forwards in the Liverpool squad.
