Federico Chiesa is eager to return to Italy if he departs from Liverpool this summer, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.
The Italian winger transferred to the Reds from Juventus for £10m in August 2024, but he is expected to be on the move during the current transfer window.
He faced challenges in winning over Arne Slot during his first season, starting only one of six Premier League matches while contending with injury issues.
The 27-year-old scored in a 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final after coming on as a substitute.
His time at Anfield may be short-lived, particularly since a replacement for Mohamed Salah is no longer necessary following the renewal of the Egyptian’s contract.

The 51-cap Italy international has demonstrated his capabilities as a top-tier attacker in the past, but it appears he is becoming increasingly frustrated with the limited first-team opportunities he has received.
Romano provided an update on Chiesa’s circumstances, stating that while he has a strong affection for the Reds, he is unwilling to endure another season sitting on the bench (as mentioned on his YouTube channel):
