The Merseyside giants are closing in on a couple of transfers that will burn a huge hole through their transfer budget. Liverpool need a few player sales, and a beloved title winner is set to exit Anfield in a cut-price deal as part of the club’s plans.
Their pursuit of Florian Wirtz has grabbed all the headlines and eyeballs, and Liverpool have shown real ambition and intent in the ongoing summer transfer window.
However, Liverpool need to move on a few players soon to balance their books and find space in their wage bill for a few more new arrivals in the upcoming weeks and months.
Some fringe stars are facing an uncertain future at the club, and a beloved Liverpool title winner is now facing the exit door for a cut-price deal this summer.
Name the team Liverpool signed these players from in the 2010s
Liverpool title winner Federico Chiesa is facing a shock exit this summer
Federico Chiesa is happy at Liverpool and won a league winners’ medal at the end of his first season at Anfield.
However, he has been nothing more than a bit-part player under Arne Slot and made just one Premier League start for the club in the 2024/25 campaign.
A return to Italy has been mooted, and Napoli and AC Milan are believed to be interested in signing him.
According to Calcio Blog, Inter Milan, last season’s Champions League finalists, are also considering moving for the winger this summer.
They had their eyes on him when he joined Juventus from Fiorentina a few years back, but he was unaffordable then.
Liverpool are open to letting him go for more than £15m this summer, and that is very much in the Nerazzurri’s price range.
Inter are closely monitoring the situation and will soon make an offer for Chiesa this summer.
