In a significant transfer move, Liverpool has successfully secured the services of Federico Chiesa from Juventus. The Reds have struck a deal that could ultimately be worth up to £12.5 million (A$24.5 million), marking a major addition to their squad. The 26-year-old Italian forward is set to undergo a medical on Merseyside, following the agreement reached between Liverpool and Juventus on Wednesday.
The transfer, which involves an initial payment of £10 million, sees Chiesa signing a four-year contract with the Premier League side. This move follows speculation linking Chiesa with other prominent clubs, including Barcelona and various Saudi Arabian teams. Liverpool's interest intensified after it became clear that Juventus coach Thiago Motta did not include Chiesa in his long-term plans.

Chiesa, who made 37 appearances last season for Juventus—29 of those as a starter—scored 10 goals. Despite this solid performance, his future at Juventus seemed uncertain, especially with the arrival of Motta. Liverpool, seizing the opportunity, moved quickly to secure Chiesa’s services, adding a dynamic player to their attacking lineup.
In other transfer news, Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku has arrived in Italy to finalize his move to Napoli. The Belgian striker's transfer fee is reported to be around A$50 million. Additionally, Brentford has made headlines by signing Gustavo Nunes, a promising 18-year-old forward from Brazilian side Gremio. Nunes, who has signed a six-year contract with Brentford, is seen as a key addition to the team’s future prospects. Brentford coach Thomas Frank expressed enthusiasm about Nunes’s potential, highlighting his ability to take on players and create opportunities.
These moves underscore a busy transfer window across European football, with significant changes and investments shaping the future of several top clubs. Liverpool’s acquisition of Chiesa is particularly notable, as it reinforces their ambitions for the upcoming season and reflects their proactive approach in the transfer market.
