    Liverpool are considering a move for Juventus' Italy winger Federico Chiesa.

    The 26-year-old attacker has been deemed surplus to requirements by Juve manager Thiago Motta, who took charge of the Serie A side earlier this summer.

    Chiesa, who was part of Italy's squad at Euro 2024, reportedly has one year left on his contract.

    He was not named in the squad for Motta's first league game in charge against Como and was also absent when Juventus played Hellas Verona on Monday.

    Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes said earlier this summer that the club would be "opportunistic if we can" when it came to making signings.

    The process has involved the Reds showing exploratory interest in a number of players and it is understood the interest in Chiesa has not yet gone further than that.

    Liverpool are closing in on a deal for Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili but have yet to make a signing so far this summer under new manager Arne Slot.

    Certainly in England, yes.

    But, what did he think to taking on the job? He became England's first foreign boss in 2001, which was a huge talking point at the time.

    Sven-Goran Eriksson: Former England boss on fulfilling 'dream to manage Liverpool legends

    One of Sven-Goran Eriksson's dreams was to manage Liverpool, a club which he had supported all of his life.

    After Eriksson announced his illness, the Swede was still able to make that dream come true as he took charge of a Liverpool Legends team which beat an Ajax Legends side 4-2 at Anfield, in March this year.

    An opportunity which he called, "beautiful".
