The future of Federico Chiesa seems to be far from Anfield. At 27 years old, the Italian's time in the Premier League is not going as planned, with only 180 minutes played in seven matches across all competitions in the first half of the 24/25 season. The English club is willing to let him go on loan, and Villarreal could be his unexpected destination.
Villarreal, the unexpected but possible destination for Chiesa
Despite all signs pointing back to Italy, where Federico Chiesa excelled at both Fiorentina and Juventus Turin, the talented European footballer's future might lie in LaLiga. Villarreal, after losing out on Antony, is still keen on strengthening their attack, and the Italian is a highly appealing option.
Liverpool is aware that keeping the player on the roster is senseless if he continues to have minimal playing time under Arne Slot's management. Therefore, Anfield is willing to release him on loan, possibly even with a stimulating sale offer. In the case of Villarreal, the Spanish club plans to offer a loan until the end of the season.
If Villarreal secures the arrival of Federico Chiesa, they would significantly enhance their quality and stand a chance to compete for European spots. Should the Italian regain his best form and not replicate his Liverpool struggles, the Spanish club might secure one of the best signings of the winter transfer window.
