Federico Chiesa could be on his way out of Anfield. According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, the 28-year-old forward is ready to leave Liverpool in January, with Inter Milan, Lazio and Atalanta all showing interest. As with all transfer gossip, treat it as a report, not a done deal.
Chiesa and the Serie A queue
The report suggests a return to Italy is on his mind. Inter, Lazio and Atalanta are the three clubs named. None has made an official approach, and nothing from Liverpool has confirmed that he wants to go.
Haaland, Barcelona and Arsenal
The bigger name on the list is Erling Haaland. Teamtalk say Arsenal have the finances to sign the Manchester City striker, 26, but that he is more likely to end up at Barcelona if he leaves. This arrives at an awkward moment for City, who have lodged an appeal after being found guilty by an independent commission, and talk of players leaving is only going to grow.
Mitoma, Kayode and the rest
Elsewhere, Tottenham and Liverpool are reportedly monitoring Brighton winger Kaoru Mitoma, 29, who is out of contract next summer, ahead of a possible January move. Juventus are said to remain keen on Brentford right-back Michael Kayode, 22, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. Barcelona are keeping tabs on Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi, 22, an Italy-born Germany Under-21 international.
The last item is the most unusual. The Express report that Pep Guardiola, City's former manager, plans to attend their Champions League game against Paris Saint-Germain on 14 October as a show of support for his troubled former club. Like the rest of this, it comes with a source attached and no confirmation.
Transfer context: Federico Chiesa, 28, forward, Liverpool. Reported suitors: Inter Milan, Lazio, Atalanta (Calciomercato). Erling Haaland, 26, Manchester City (Teamtalk). All items are media reports, not confirmed deals.
