Federico Chiesa reports interest in staying at Liverpool this European season

Federico Chiesa has ended weeks of speculation by confirming he wants to remain at Liverpool for the 2025/26 European season. The Italian forward, who joined the club last year, informed the Reds’ board of his decision despite strong interest from Serie A clubs.

Chiesa Chooses Liverpool Over Exit Rumors

The winger endured a difficult first year under coach Arne Slot, receiving limited opportunities and often left out of the rotation. That situation fueled rumors of a departure, with Juventus and Napoli among the clubs monitoring his situation.

However, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Chiesa has now made his stance clear: he will not leave Anfield this summer. The player believes he will receive more minutes this season and has the backing of Slot, who reportedly values his presence in the squad.

Role in Liverpool’s New Season

Chiesa has already made an impact, scoring in the team’s opening victory and taking part in several preseason matches. His presence on the squad list is now regular, unlike last season when he struggled to earn a spot.

The Italian also sees greater opportunity following Luis Díaz’s departure, which could open the door for him to secure a more prominent attacking role.

Interest From Abroad Rejected

Despite concrete approaches from Italian clubs, Chiesa remains committed to Liverpool. His focus is on the Premier League and helping the team compete for trophies this season.
