Liverpool manager Arne Slot has reportedly deemed Federico Chiesa “unsellable” this summer, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The Italian forward’s impressive performance in the Reds’ 4-2 win against Bournemouth, where he scored the winning goal, has cemented his place in Slot’s plans.
Chiesa’s Impact
Chiesa’s versatility and ability to operate across the frontline make him a valuable asset for Liverpool.
He could serve as a backup centre-forward or right-winger, providing depth and competition for places in the starting XI.
Attacking Options
With Mohamed Salah’s age and potential need for rotation, Chiesa’s signing could be a strategic move to ensure the team’s attacking potency.
Other options like Hugo Ekitike, Cody Gakpo, and youngster Rio Ngumoha are also part of the squad, but Chiesa’s experience and skillset make him a strong contender for a starting spot.
Potential Signings
Liverpool’s pursuit of Alexander Isak could significantly boost their attacking depth.
The Swedish striker’s arrival would likely push Ekitike to the bench or potentially move him to the left wing.

Additionally, signing another winger like Bradley Barcola could provide further competition and strengthen the squad.
Title Retention
As Liverpool aims to retain their Premier League title, having a strong and deep squad will be crucial.
With Slot’s confidence in Chiesa and potential new signings, the Reds are shaping up to be a formidable force in the upcoming season.
