According to David Ornstein, a veteran reporter for The Athletic, English Premier League giants Liverpool Football Club are going all out to sign Italian international winger Federico Chiesa from Serie A rivals Juventus before the summer transfer window closes. The news has undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on the transfer market and has attracted much attention and buzz.
Ornstein noted that Liverpool's interest in Chiesa has been longstanding, and they have always admired the young talent's footballing brilliance and potential. Now, with Chiesa's contract with Juventus set to expire in June 2025 and both sides unable to agree on a renewal, Liverpool see a great opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Chiesa's current price tag is reportedly around €15 million, which is a relatively reasonable price range for Liverpool.
In order to successfully bring in Chiesa, Liverpool have prepared a four-year contract to show their sincerity and determination. This contract not only provides Chiesa with a stable career prospect, but also promises him an important position in the team and enough space to play. Obviously, Liverpool hopes to attract Chiesa to join the team in this way and help the team achieve better results in the new season.
Notably, the Italian international has been left out of the club's first-team plans due to the impasse between Juventus and Chiesa over a contract extension. This is undoubtedly good news for Liverpool as they can more easily negotiate with Juventus and try to complete the transfer for a better price.
