Liverpool closing in on Juventus winger Chiesa

Liverpool are close to agreeing a deal to sign Juventus winger Federico Chiesa.

Though a deal is yet to be finalised, the Reds hope to agree a fee in the region of €13m (£10.9m) for the Italy international.

Chiesa, 26, could undergo a medical with Liverpool in the coming days and if all goes to plan he would become Arne Slot's first signing at the club.

Speaking to Italian network Sportitalia, external outside an airport on Wednesday, Chiesa told reporters he was "ready for this new adventure".

Chiesa was a star of his country's Euro 2021-winning squad that beat England 2-1 in the final at Wembley.
