Italian international Federico Chiesa left Juventus last summer after being left out of the squad to join Liverpool. He suffered from poor conditions in England and was rarely available for the first half of the season, and even missed out on the bench at times.
Only recently has he been getting more playing time and has shown off his sharp dribbling and shooting ability, but only against lesser opposition or against lower-ranked teams. His goal for the future is to get more pitch time in the Premier League and Champions League.
According to Fichajes, Villarreal, who are aiming for a top-four finish in La Liga, are interested in the 27-year-old winger, who has been out of action and has been linked with a return to Italy. They could make a rush move before the transfer window closes this winter and are planning to acquire him on a loan move.
He was a star player at EURO 2020, but his career has gone downhill since then due to injuries. Newly appointed Juventus coach Thiago Motta did not consider him a force to be reckoned with and he did not even participate in pre-season.
He can play on the left or right wing and, as long as he is back in condition, he can play at the top level. Arne Slot has no intention of letting him go, and Liverpool will be left without a reserve for Mohamed Salah, which is not a good situation.
Will the Spanish club make a serious move for the Italian attacker?
