As the January transfer window opens, Premier League leaders Liverpool are looking to make adjustments to their squad.
Under the guidance of Arne Slot, Liverpool has been in exceptional form this season, securing their position at the top of both the Premier League and Champions League standings. Slot’s arrival has revitalized the team, with many players enjoying some of their best performances yet.
However, not all players have been at their best. Darwin Nunez and Federico Chiesa, in particular, have struggled this season. Liverpool is reportedly exploring options to replace Nunez, while Chiesa may be allowed to leave this month for a potential return to Italy.
According to TBR Football, Slot is open to Chiesa’s departure, even though he admires the player. Slot understands that Chiesa may need to move on in search of more playing time and better opportunities.
Chiesa, who has had a challenging time at Liverpool, has been linked with a return to Serie A. His representatives have reportedly approached the club to discuss his potential departure. Despite understanding that others are ahead of him in the pecking order, Chiesa is concerned about his limited game time.
Italian clubs such as Napoli, Roma, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Atalanta, and Fiorentina are all interested in signing the 27-year-old, but only if they can cover most of his wages. Chiesa’s struggles with fitness and adapting to life in England have hindered his time at Anfield, and a move to Italy would offer him a chance for more playing time in a familiar environment, helping him get his career back on track.
