Federico Chiesa, a Liverpool player, tops West Ham United's list of targets for a loan signing in the upcoming winter transfer window, according to a news source specializing in transfers.

Chiesa has faced difficulties securing a regular starting position with the Reds since joining them in August 2023, sparking speculation about his future at Anfield. West Ham's desire to sign the player on loan conflicts with Liverpool's preference to complete only permanent transfers.

The Italian winger moved to Liverpool from Juventus for £12.5 million. After struggling with injuries and lack of fitness during his first season, his performance has improved this current season, having scored two goals and provided one assist in eight Premier League matches. However, his playing time remains limited.

The name Chiesa has been linked with transfers to other clubs recently, such as Napoli and Milan, highlighting the interest of Italian clubs in bringing him back to Serie A.
