Liverpool’s Chiesa eyes Serie A exit as three clubs watch

Liverpool’s 28‑year‑old winger Federico Chiesa, who has managed just five goals in 50 appearances, is reportedly attracting interest from three Italian clubs as he looks to leave Anfield and return to Serie A. The Italy international has struggled to cement a place in the Reds' line‑up since joining from Juventus in the summer of 2024.

Struggling spell at Anfield

Since arriving at Liverpool, Chiesa has found playing time hard to come by. He has not featured for the club at all this season and his minutes in the first two campaigns were similarly sparse. The lack of involvement has left the Reds with few options for his future.

In total, the winger has contributed five goals from 50 games, a return that falls short of the expectations set during his Juventus days. Many observers find it surprising that he remained on the Reds’ books for as long as he did given the limited impact. His under‑whelming spell has prompted speculation that his Liverpool chapter may be drawing to a close.

Interest from Italian clubs

Calciomercato Inter Milan, Atalanta and Lazio are actively monitoring Chiesa’s situation. The Italy international is said to be keen on a move back to his home country, with the three Serie A sides each expressing varying degrees of interest. All three clubs are expected to intensify their pursuit in the January transfer window.

At present, no formal negotiations have been confirmed, and the report stresses that talks remain in an early stage. Nevertheless, the proximity of the window means that a deal could materialise quickly if the Reds are willing to part with the player. Liverpool’s limited role for Chiesa suggests a low transfer fee may be acceptable.

Chiesa’s earlier reputation as a top talent at Juventus – often referred to as Juve – fuels belief that a return to Serie A could revive his career. A successful spell in Italy would not only restore his confidence but also offer the Reds a tidy exit. The winger’s age of 28 implies he still has several productive years ahead.

The situation highlights how clubs assess value when a player’s output has been modest. While Liverpool appear ready to move on, interested Italian clubs will weigh his experience against the five‑goal return. The coming weeks will reveal how much the market is prepared to invest in a player seeking redemption.
