CM: Chiesa unhappy at Liverpool – the one condition for Milan move to be possible | OneFootball

Federico Chiesa’s adventure with Liverpool is not going the way either party planned at the moment, and a return to Serie A is possible.

According to Calciomercato.com, a departure in January cannot be ruled out for Chiesa despite the fact he only joined in the summer. He recently returned to the pitch after almost three months of absence, in a League Cup match against Southampton.

However, the Italy international not at all happy with the little playing time that coach Arne Slot is giving him and could therefore consider asking for a move. He has made only four appearances in total, obtaining 123 minutes, which is not enough for the 27-year-old.

Slot commented recently on Chiesa as follows: “What he needs is to play, the problem is that if he hasn’t played for five or six months sometimes it’s difficult for a manager to give him his first minutes, because you don’t know exactly what to expect.”

Despite the difficult moment, there is no shortage of suitors for Chiesa, especially in Serie A where he shone with Fiorentina and Juventus. Inter are keen but need to sell, while Roma and Milan have him on their radar, and Napoli cannot be ruled out either.

There is an issue for Italian clubs, though: Chiesa’s current salary of almost €7.5m net per season is huge, so Liverpool would have to agree to covering a sizeable chunk of it.

It was recently reported that Milan are thinking about signing a new winger with targets in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga. The reason? Samu Chukwueze and Okafor have disappointed so far this season due to injuries, form and just not being what Paulo Fonseca wants.
