WHAT HAPPENED?
Per TBR Football, Como are interested in signing Chiesa from Liverpool, as are "half of Serie A", with the winger aiming to play regularly before the 2026 World Cup, should Italy qualify. The winger is also wanted by AC Milan and Inter, but he is not said to be keen on a move to the latter, and the former will only be able to finance a deal if Rafael Leao leaves.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Cesc Fabregas has guided Como out of Serie B and into Serie A and the club finished 10th in 2024/25 last season. Now, as the club aim to take the next step and potentially qualify for Europe, the ex-Arsenal and Chelsea star wants to ally Chiesa with Dele Alli at the club.

DID YOU KNOW?
Chiesa made just four starts for Liverpool last season and the Reds paid just £12.5 million ($17m) to sign Chiesa, and are said to be willing to take a small fee for the Italy international. He has won 51 caps for his country, but has not played for them since their Euro 2024 clash with Switzerland.

WHAT NEXT?
Chiesa will hope to complete a move away from Liverpool swiftly as the transfer window rolls on. Como will hope to beat off serious competition to land the star.
