Liverpool have made contact with Juventus over a deal to sign long-term Manchester United and Chelsea target Federico Chiesa, according to reports.

The Reds are one of the only clubs in Europe who are yet to make any summer signings and, with the transfer window shutting at the end of the week, time is running out for Arne Slot to strengthen the squad he inherited from Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool have been heavily linked with signing a winger in recent weeks to provide an alternative option to Mohamed Salah on the right.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Chiesa is now a player who has been shortlisted as a potential option out wide for the Merseyside option.

Liverpool have made an ‘initial approach’ to learn more about the conditions of signing the Italy international, with Juventus making it clear that the versatile forward does not have a future at the club.

The Serie A side are keen to find a ‘solution’ to the situation, with Chiesa keen to make the move to the Premier League following several seasons of speculation.

The likes of Manchester United and Chelsea have been linked with Chiesa at various times over the past five years and now Liverpool are showing interest in the 26-year-old.
