It looks like Federico Chiesa's time at Liverpool is coming to an end. According to Caught Offside, Milan has had "indirect contact" with Chiesa's representatives, "though the financial aspect may present difficulties," according to sources familiar with the player's circumstances. Under new manager Arne Slot, the 26-year-old Italian international, who only signed for €12 million a year ago, appears to be losing favour.
Despite Liverpool’s title-winning campaign, Chiesa started just one Premier League match and was a notable absentee from the club’s Asia tour squad. That omission, alongside limited involvement during the run-in, signals a lack of long-term trust from Slot and suggests a transfer is more a matter of ‘when’ than ‘if’. Chiesa’s profile remains strong in Italy. Milan’s informal approach could evolve into something firmer as the window progresses, while a return to Juventus, barely a year after his departure, is also gathering momentum.
