Chiesa eyes Liverpool exit - Saturday's gossip

What the report says

BBC Sport Football’s latest transfer gossip roundup says Liverpool forward Federico Chiesa is being linked with a possible January departure from Anfield. The report names Inter Milan, Lazio and Atalanta as the Serie A clubs said to be interested in the 28-year-old Italy international. It also notes that, according to the cited Italian outlet, Chiesa is ready to leave Liverpool in the next transfer window.

The same roundup mentions several other prospective moves across Europe. Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is described as a player Arsenal could afford, but one who is reportedly more likely to join Barcelona than move to north London if he leaves City. Brentford right-back Michael Kayode is said to remain of interest to Juventus, while Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo is reported to be unwilling to leave despite links with Premier League and Saudi clubs.

BBC Sport also says Tottenham and Liverpool are monitoring Brighton winger Kaoru Mitoma ahead of a possible January move, with his contract due to expire next summer. Elsewhere, Mexican teenager Gilberto Mora is said to prefer Real Madrid or Barcelona over Liverpool, Barcelona are reportedly tracking Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi, and former Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is planning to attend City’s Champions League match against Paris St-Germain as a show of support.
