Football Insider.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 27-year-old joined the Reds from Juventus in the summer of 2024, in an attempt to spark his career back into life.<\/p>\n<p>However, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/liverpool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool<\/a> won the Premier League last season, the Italian international made just six appearances in the competition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/liverpool-plan-to-accept-10m-federico-chiesa-offer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chiesa was linked with an Anfield exit<\/a> in the summer window, but despite the rumours, he remained with the Merseyside club.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"

ImagoLiverpool decide future of Federico Chiesa<\/p>\n<p>It was originally thought that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/he-feels-like-a-prisoner-liverpool-star-tipped-to-quit-after-latest-arne-slot-snub\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chiesa was likely to leave Liverpool in the January window<\/a>, in order to find game time elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>However, sources say that the attacker is now set to stay with the Reds, after becoming a bigger part of <a

href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/federico-chiesa-could-now-be-included-in-liverpools-champions-league-squad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chiesa replaced the injured Giovanni Leoni<\/a> in Liverpool\u2019s Champions League squad.<\/p>\n<p>MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n<p>The former Juventus man has provided some big moments for the Merseyside club this season, scoring two Premier League goals already despite getting limited minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Chiesa could be given the chance to shine<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/leaked-footage-shows-alexander-isak-wearing-numbered-liverpool-shirt-ahead-of-deadline-day-deal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool spent big money on the likes of Alexander Isak<\/a>, Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz over the summer, so many believed that there wouldn\u2019t be room for Chiesa.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\"

href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/revealed-the-real-reason-for-florian-wirtzs-rough-start-at-liverpool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wirtz have struggled to adapt to life at Anfield<\/a>, and it has given the Italian winger a chance to impress.<\/p>\n<p>During his 153 minutes of time on the pitch this season, Chiesa has already managed to grab four goal contributions in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>It means he is getting a goal or assist every 38 minutes, and if the big-money signings continue to underperform, then there is no reason why he won\u2019t get more game
