Liverpool could take advantage of Federico Chiesa’s allegedly difficult relationship with Massimiliano Allegri in the upcoming summer window.
Tuttosport (as relayed by Sport Witness) have claimed that the Reds could ‘intervene’ in the market for the Juventus star.

The Italian international has considerable experience on the right wing, whilst also having plied his trade on the left wing and as a central striker.

Certain exceptions can, and will, be made for players of the Italian’s calibre.
