Liverpool and Juventus are in direct contact over a deal for Federico Chiesa with talks taking place over a transfer fee and the player’s salary according to Fabrizio Romano.
The Reds have made a brilliant start to life under Arne Slot and have won their opening two Premier League games.
It’s been a quiet summer in terms of transfer business although they have now completed the signing of Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia, but the goalkeeper will spend the season back on loan with the La Liga outfit.

Liverpool already have a number of attacking options in their squad with the likes of Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota, Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez, but the club clearly feel they could do with an additional option.
The 26-year-old only has a year remaining on his current deal with Juventus and isn’t part of the plans under Thiago Motta.
