Liverpool boss Arne Slot is reportedly prepared to part ways with Federico Chiesa, despite the winger’s strong form this season.
According to reports from Fichajes, Slot doesn’t view the Italian international as a vital component of his tactical setup and could sanction his exit in the near future — possibly as early as the January transfer window or once the season concludes.
However, there are mixed signals coming out of Anfield. Some insiders believe Liverpool may prefer to keep Chiesa until summer, given the club’s limited depth on the wings. Letting him go mid-season could leave the Reds short-handed, especially with no clear replacement yet lined up.
Chiesa endured a difficult period with injuries last term but has bounced back impressively, earning the Player of the Month award for September. His return to form has delighted fans, though he still seems to be fighting to gain Slot’s full confidence — a surprising twist, considering his creativity, energy, and adaptability in attack.
If Liverpool do decide to cash in, finding a capable successor will be essential. The Reds have yet to truly replace Luis DĂaz’s impact, and with Mohamed Salah edging closer to the twilight of his career, Slot may soon be forced to rebuild his wide attacking options.
At 27 years old, Chiesa remains in his prime and would attract plenty of interest across Europe. Any club in need of a proven, dynamic winger would view him as a major coup.
