A sensational rumour is raining down from England: former Juventus and national team Liverpool player Federico Chiesa could land at Lazio in the next soccer market session. No, we are not on Football Manager, but with the arrival of Maurizio Sarri on the biancoceleste bench, the outfielder could return to Italy
UPDATE JUNE 2 – According to the latest rumors, Federico Chiesa could once again become a target of the Biancocelesti management: the Italian outfielder, who is playing for Liverpool, did not have his best season of his career at the Reds and would be ready to return to Serie A. There is certainly no shortage of suitors, with Napoli and Inter Milan in the window in addition to Lazio; for a possible arrival it will be decisive that the English club grants the option of a loan with right of redemption and participates in the payment of at least half of the 6 million salary. Lazio had already made a sounding board for Chiesa some time ago, with Liverpool valuing him at 15 million and would be willing to let him leave: the outfielder’s future seems to be in tricolor hues.

According to the journalist, Liverpool would be happy to make Chiesa leave, out of Slot’s plans, who has failed to relaunch him after shadows at Juventus. At the same time, the English team would be more than interested in Gustav Isasken, with Lazio not considering the boy incedible, despite the real explosion he is experiencing under the guidance of coach Baroni.
Two teams, two players, cross-interests: the exchange (with cash adjustment in favor of Lazio) could materialize rather smoothly. The only, big, problem? Chiesa’s salary, currently out of the reach of the biancocelesti.
Bringing Chiesa back would be a great, if risky, operation: between his last year at Juve and this year at Liverpool, in fact, the outfielder has struggled to find continuity and return to what he was before his serious knee injury. He certainly remains a player with innate talent and charisma, the kind that can make a quantum leap in experience and mentality as well.
