A number of Liverpool supporters are desperate for the Reds to sign Italy star Federico Chiesa after a rumour linked him with a move to Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp’s men had a disappointing day at the office on Saturday, drawing 3-3 away to a spirited Brentford side. Some of Liverpool’s defending left a lot to be desired throughout the contest, but they were also wasteful in front of goal when they were 3-2 up.

The Reds’ failure to sign another attacker this summer was hugely frustrating, especially with Sadio Mane continuing to struggle – the 29-year-old drew a lot of criticism from Kopites for his performance over the weekend.
Liverpool have now been linked with an exciting move for £63m-rated Juventus winger Chiesa, with Calciomercato claiming [via Anfield Edition on Twitter] claiming that the Merseysiders are showing “strong interest” in him.
The 23-year-old scored twice in Italy’s Euro 2020 triumph and has been his club’s third-best performer so far this season according to WhoScored, averaging a match rating of 7.29. He also boasts a respectable goal return of 49 in 200 senior club career games.
