Federico Chiesa has become something of a cult hero at Liverpool this season.



However, seeing as though Liverpool are constantly looking for ways to try and improve their first-team squad, it feels like Chiesa’s place in the team is about to be tested once again.





One thing that was made clear in the 2025-26 summer transfer window is that Liverpool won’t stop at anything to get their transfer targets.



It may have taken them until deadline day to get the deal for Alexander Isak over the line, but the main thing that matters is that he’s now a Liverpool player.

The attacker has played seven times for PSG this season, with his all-time appearances amounting to 19.



The fact that he’s only 17 years old also plays in his favour as it means that he has plenty of room to grow into an even better player than he already is, which, with the talent he’s shown so far, is rather scary.

Indeed, Chiesa has much more experience and would arguably be a better fit for Liverpool, but if Arne Slot continues to choose other players over him, it would be a massive surprise not to see him seek an exit this term.
