Liverpool ready to part with Chiesa as Italian clubs circle
Liverpool intend to move Federico Chiesa out in January and are not preparing a new contract, even though his current terms last until 2028. Inter, Milan, Lazio and Atalanta are tracking the situation, after Roma and Inter had earlier made enquiries. Chiesa now has to choose between staying to compete for minutes under Andoni Iraola or going back to Italy to restart his career.
Federico Chiesa remains tied to Liverpool until summer 2028, yet the club has no renewal plans and would prefer to sell him in the January window rather than lose the chance to receive a fee. Previous interest from Roma and Inter did not advance because the winger resisted a move.
Inter, Milan, Lazio and Atalanta are now watching for developments. Chiesa must decide whether to stay and fight for playing time under Andoni Iraola or return to Italy in search of a fresh start.
The outcome may matter most to Chiesa’s career and to supporters of the clubs involved, who could see a high-profile Italian return reshape expectations for the January window. For Liverpool, a sale could free squad space and wages, while Italian clubs may gain a marketable attacker. Broader effects are likely limited to football culture and fan discussion rather than society at large.
