- Gennaro Gattuso has warned Federico Chiesa that he must secure regular playing time at Liverpool to stay in contention for Italy’s squad ahead of World Cup qualifiers.
- Chiesa featured only six times and made one Premier League start last season, logging just 464 minutes in Liverpool’s title-winning campaign.
- The 27-year-old has not appeared for Italy since Euro 2024 due to injury setbacks and his limited role at Anfield.
- Napoli are reportedly the frontrunners to sign Chiesa if he pursues a move away to revive his international prospects.
- Liverpool have pledged to give Chiesa a full pre-season under Arne Slot even as they chase transfers including Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez.
