Federico Chiesa scored for Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final, which is perhaps his biggest event since arriving at the club.
While the game didn’t turn out to be positive for the Reds, it was a personal positive for the Italian, who has struggled for action this season.
The goal came as a welcome reminder of his abilities, considering how Chiesa has played only 11 times in all competitions for Arne Slot’s side.
While the winger’s father has ruled out the idea of an exit from Liverpool, more has now emerged about the 27-year-old’s future on Merseyside.
La Lazio Siamo Noi have reported that Lazio have made initial contact for the ex-Juventus player. The idea of signing Chiesa would be rather complicated for the Roman side, but it’s stated Liverpool would be ready to loan the player out in the summer.
The Anfield side want an option to buy of €15m inserted in any loan deal. As of now, Lazio cannot afford the Italy international’s wages of €7m per season and would require some contribution from Liverpool.
That is why the Biancocelesti have denied their interest in a move for Chiesa, who is likely to be too expensive for him unless there’s a compromise on salary.
