WHAT HAPPENED?
The Italian international swapped Juventus for Liverpool in August but he has barely played under manager Arne Slot. Now, Foot Mercato claims the 27-year-old wants to leave the Reds on loan in January to get more minutes and Napoli, Inter Milan, and Fiorentina are said to be interested.

Chiesa has struggled with injuries in recent months but now he is back fit, he is not getting much of a look-in at Liverpool. Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz, and more, are ahead of him in the pecking order so perhaps a loan move would be good to help him get back to his best.
