"Liverpool want around 25 million for the 28-year-old winger, with Juventus and Napoli both being mentioned as possible destinations. Chiesa is still under contract at Liverpool, but his role at Anfield has never really grown into what many fans expected. He joined from Juventus in 2024 in a deal worth 10 million plus 2.5 million in add-ons, signing a four-year contract at the club."
"The problem is that Chiesa has struggled to become a regular starter. He has had moments, but not enough to force his way properly into Liverpool's main attacking plans. ESPN lists him with just one Premier League start and 24 substitute appearances in the 2025/26 season, with two goals and one assist. The Premier League's own site has him at 32 appearances, two goals and one assist, which also tells the same story."
"That is not really what Chiesa needs at this stage of his career. He is 28, in what should be his peak years, and he cannot afford to spend season after season playing short cameos from the bench. He needs rhythm, confidence and a manager who gives him a clear attacking role. Liverpool's asking price makes sense."
"If they bought him for a relatively small fee and can now sell for around 25 million, that would represent a decent profit. It would also free up squad space and help Arne Slot reshape his attack after a difficult season. Reds are expected to make major changes this summer with Liverpool struggling badly in the league."
Liverpool are reportedly open to listening to offers for Federico Chiesa this summer. Liverpool want around £25 million for the 28-year-old winger, with Juventus and Napoli mentioned as possible destinations. Chiesa remains under contract after joining from Juventus in 2024 for €10 million plus €2.5 million in add-ons on a four-year deal. His role at Anfield has not developed into a regular starting position. He has appeared mostly as a substitute, with limited Premier League starts and modest goal and assist output. Chiesa needs consistent playing time and a clear attacking role, especially during peak years. Liverpool’s asking price could allow a profit and create squad space for Arne Slot’s planned attacking reshaping.
