Liverpool are approaching the winter transfer window with a sense of calm as they do not feel they need to bring in players to sustain a title challenge. However, there are also question marks over the futures of several players ahead of January.
Arne Slot is happy with the depth of his squad and is unlikely to demand any new signings to aid his side’s bid to win a historic 20th league title in the second half of the season.
Liverpool do not feel the pressure to get into the market for new players but are prepared to be flexible and proactive if a long-term target suddenly becomes available in the winter transfer window.
However, there are certain players in the squad who are battling to save their Liverpool careers and have been linked with a move away from Anfield in January.
Federico Chiesa is one of the players who are battling to prove himself at Anfield and has been linked with a move away despite joining the club last summer.
Reds star makes decision over his future at Anfield
The Italy winger was seen as a calculated gamble for a relatively low fee last summer but his time at Liverpool has been a disaster thus far.
He has played just 78 minutes of football and Arne Slot has openly aired his frustration about his fitness levels since his arrival.
Chiesa has not played since before the October break and there are question marks over whether he can ever match the intensity of the Premier League.
Clubs such as Inter Milan are exploring signing him on loan in January and according to Sky Deutschland, the player has made a decision over his future.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players to?
It has been claimed that Chiesa has made it clear that he is not interested in leaving Liverpool in the winter transfer window.
He has discarded the possibility of leaving on loan and wants to stay at Liverpool.
Chiesa is determined to prove his worth at Anfield and is not prepared to give up on making it in England just yet.
