Champions League club now want to sign a SECOND Liverpool star | OneFootball

Liverpool have conducted a landmark summer of spending - with Richard Hughes overseeing £260m-worth of new signings. And there promises to be more in store.

The Reds could add Alexander Isak as a new option up top - which would require a British record fee of around £135m. And there is also a shortage of centre-backs - meaning the Anfield club could move for the likes of Marc Guehi or Ronald Araujo.

But the Merseysiders need to make space in the squad to accommodate these new signings. Chances are going to be at a premium for certain squad members - especially in attack.

One player set to suffer is Federico Chiesa. The Italian only managed six appearances in the Premier League last season and appears surplus to requirements given the quality now at Arne Slot’s disposal.

Celtic interested in Chiesa

Mo Salah and Jeremie Frimpong are set to reign on the right wing - meaning Chiesa will be permitted to leave. Atalanta and Napoli are among the Serie A sides linked with the 27-year-old - who joined from Juventus for a fee that could reach £12.5m.

But now interest has emerged from inside the Premier League - in the form of Fulham - as well as Champions League club Celtic.

Coached by former Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers, the Scottish champions are ready to sign Chiesa on loan. That’s according to a new report in Sports Boom, which also claims the Cottagers retain an interest.
