Why do Liverpool want Federico Chiesa – and would he be a good fit?

New York Times  

It was one of the summer’s more surprising transfer tales. Salah is out of contract at the end of this season If Liverpool sign Chiesa, it would not be confirmation that this will be Salah’s final season on Merseyside. It follows a trend from last season when 36 per cent of Liverpool’s attacking touches in the league came on their right, down from 39 per cent in 2022-23. His 2.7 take-on attempts and 35 per cent success rate in the 2023-24 Premier League were his lowest in a full season since he joined Liverpool in summer 2017. While Chiesa’s take-on success rate of 37 per cent could improve, his 2.4 carries into the penalty area per 90 was the highest among forwards in Italy’s Serie A last season.
