Liverpool have begun discussions with Serie A clubs over potential loan moves for some of their players. One player in particular who has been linked to a move to Serie A is Federico Chiesa, a forward who has struggled to find his footing at Anfield.

Potential Move for Federico Chiesa

– Milan and Juventus Interest: Milan and Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Chiesa on loan, with the player seeking regular game time ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Chiesa’s talent is undeniable, but he’s yet to mesh with Arne Slot’s tactical vision, which emphasizes discipline, structure and high-intensity pressing.

– Loan Fee and Salary: While details of the potential loan move are still emerging, Liverpool is likely to demand a reasonable loan fee, and Chiesa’s salary will also be a key consideration in negotiations.

– Competition from Other Clubs: Chiesa’s situation has attracted interest from other clubs, including Atalanta and Como, with Atletico Madrid also monitoring the situation from Spain ¹.

Other Potential Departures

– Darwin Nunez: Talks have begun over a potential sale of Darwin Nunez to Napoli, with the player reportedly open to the move. Liverpool feels that Napoli has a good chance of signing Nunez, and the Reds won’t stand in his way if he decides to leave.

– Other Potential Exits: Liverpool is expected to sanction several departures this summer, including Jarell Quansah, who has agreed to join Bayer Leverkusen for £35m, and potential exits for Harvey Elliott, Stefan Bajcetic and Tyler Morton ².

Liverpool’s Transfer Strategy

– Balancing the Books: Liverpool needs to balance its books by selling some players to reinvest in the squad. The potential sale of Nunez and other players will help fund new signings.

– New Signings: Liverpool has already signed Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen and is close to signing Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth. The Reds are also interested in signing Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt ² ³.
