Liverpool willing to let winger leave for just €25 million with two European giants interested | OneFootball

Federico Chiesa’s Liverpool spell could be heading towards an early end, with the Reds reportedly ready to listen to offers this summer. According to Calciomercato, 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.

At the time, it looked like a clever low-risk gamble from Liverpool because his talent was obvious and the fee was modest.

Federico Chiesa has struggled at Liverpool

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: he has been involved, but mostly as a squad player rather than a key man.

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 and losing 4-2 to Aston Villa in one of their final matches of the campaign, changes feel inevitable this summer.

Juventus being linked is interesting because Chiesa already knows the club, the league and the expectations.

Napoli would also make sense if they want a direct, experienced wide forward who can play on either flank and bring big-game experience.

The Premier League has not been a disaster for him, but it has not really allowed him to shine either. Sometimes a transfer can be smart on paper and still not quite fit in reality.

Chiesa needs a club where he starts regularly, feels important and can rebuild the explosive reputation he had before injuries slowed his progress.
