With a low cost - only 10 million pounds in advance plus 2.5 million pounds in additional fees - Chiesa meets many of Liverpool's requirements.
The recruitment of Chiesa could come from the data-based approach of Michael Edwards - former Liverpool sporting director, now FSG's football operations director.
Those who understand Liverpool's transfer policy will easily recognize the familiar principles. They often prioritize contracts with low risks but the possibility of success is very high.
It could be a potential player who has been left out due to circumstances rather than a star who has become a star. He can also be a player who has not reached the peak of his career but possesses abundant experience at the highest level, while playing versatile in many positions.
With a bargain price (as Chiesa's Juventus contract will expire next summer), this is an unquestioned deal for a high-class player like the Italian striker.
Chiesa was once a top prospect in Europe but suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury in January 2022. Therefore, after an explosive EURO 2020 competition, a series of injury problems have disrupted Chiesa's progress.
In fact, when Chiesa was playing for Fiorentina and throughout 2021, the "Red Brigade" had eyes on this striker. However, injury concerns have led Liverpool to put a hold on their interest.
Chiesa's strength is his ability to walk well and take on many positions in attack. He can even play as a central striker, as former Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri once claimed.
The 26-year-old's ability to accelerate quickly, dribbling power and fighting spirit are very suitable for Liverpool's identity. Even at their peak, The Kop still felt Chiesa had not been properly exploited. Now, after injury problems, Chiesa needs the right conditions to develop.
Liverpool are more suitable for Chiesa's strengths than Juventus. While his low goal contribution is considered a problem, The Kop will focus more on other aspects. That could be the number of shots, the ability to create opportunities and the efficiency in dribbling.
"First of all, I have to confirm that Liverpool players are working very hard to achieve their goals and ambitions. Therefore, you need to bring in players with the same view, vision and culture suitable for the team.
Chiesa works very hard in both competition and training to try to maximize his abilities. He has the ability to score. Chiesa is a really interesting signing.
Liverpool have a very good coaching staff. We will help Chiesa get on track. Hopefully we will see the quality of his football in the future" - Arne Slot said.
