Liverpool scout Juventus star Federico Chiesa

Liverpool have set their sights on Italian winger Federico Chiesa. The Reds are monitoring the talented player, alongside Bayern Munich, in hopes of securing his services in the upcoming transfer window.

Italian publication Gazzetta dello Sport via Juventus News 24 (h/t ECHO), has revealed that Liverpool has expressed interest in Federico Chiesa. The winger’s performances have caught the attention of the Merseyside club, who are keen to bolster their attacking options.

Chiesa is playing brilliantly for Juventus at the moment, but there are speculations that the Italian club might face the departure of both Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic during the summer transfer window due to their financial struggles. This situation could open the door for Liverpool to make a move for the 23-year-old winger.

The Italian outlet suggests that acquiring Chiesa’s services would come at a cost of approximately £38.7m which is certainly an affordable price to get on board a talent like Chiesa to be fair.

Fede to the Reds?

Known for his technical ability, pace, and versatility, Chiesa has showcased his skills both at the club level and on the international stage. His performances for Juventus and the Italian national team have surely earned him recognition as a promising talent in European football.

Liverpool’s interest in Chiesa comes as no surprise given their desire to reinforce their attacking options. With the departure of Roberto Firmino and no natural backup for Mohamed Salah, the Reds need to invest in a right-winger as soon as possible and not leave it for too late.

Acquiring a player of Chiesa’s caliber would provide an injection of quality and depth to the team, enhancing their chances of success in domestic and European competitions.

As the summer transfer window approaches, Liverpool’s interest in Chiesa is surely one to watch closely.

Even though Chiesa is a natural left-winger and the Reds have an overload in that position, the Italian international’s versatility to play on either flank as well as attacking midfield certainly makes him an attractive proposition for any elite club, obviously including Liverpool.
