Federico Chiesa’s agent has reportedly been contacted by Liverpool over a potential summer transfer.
The Reds have reportedly established ‘initial contacts’ with Fali Ramadani, according to Sportmediaset.
According to reports, Liverpool want to “guarantee” Chiesa a salary that his current employer in Turin is unable to provide.
After a disappointing 2022–23 season, the Reds are in the process of reorganizing their team.
In the Premier League, Liverpool could only manage fifth place. The FA Community Shield last summer was their lone prize.
Jurgen Klopp’strongly’ wants to bring Chiesa to Anfield, according to reports, as he attempts to strengthen his squad.
If the reports are true, then Chiesa would be a somewhat surprising target for Liverpool.
The Reds already have plenty of left-sided attacking players in their ranks, so where would Chiesa fit in?
Liverpool could do with more defensive and ball-carrying players this summer.
Obviously if Chiesa wasn’t particularly expensive it would make sense, as he is a top player.
The 25-year-old has been lauded as a ‘superstar‘ back in his homeland.
However, his reported price tag is apparently around the €60million (£52million) mark.
That’s a lot of money for a player who isn’t Premier League-proven and had a tough season last time out.
Chiesa missed the first three months as he was recovering from a cruciate ligament rupture.
He then missed games here and there with muscle fatigue, knee problems and tendon irritation.
With that in mind, any clubs wanting to sign him may be a little cautious as to his fitness going forward.
And that’s before wondering whether Liverpool need him at all, as they have more important priorities
