Chiesa could leave Liverpool in January

Federico Chiesa could leave Liverpool during the January transfer window if he does not receive regular playing opportunities following his return from injury, according to Football Insider.

Federico Chiesa, aged 28, has been left out of Liverpool's UEFA Champions League squad for the second consecutive season, a decision that reflects the difficulty of his position in coach Andoni Iraola's plans, despite the player choosing to stay this summer to fight for his place in the lineup.

Italian winger currently suffers from a muscle injury, with expectations to return to training during the international break this month.

Last season, he participated in 36 matches across all competitions, but he only started one match in the Premier League, scoring 3 goals and providing 3 assists.

Federico Chiesa may reconsider his future and request a departure in January if his situation does not change upon his return, especially with Liverpool bolstering their attacking options by signing Bradley Barcola and Victor Munoz, alongside the club's continued interest in acquiring Yankuba Minteh.
