Liverpool is reportedly exploring the possibility of including Federico Chiesa in a potential deal with Inter Milan in order to strengthen their chances of securing Marcus Thuram.
Sources indicate that Liverpool is considering offering Chiesa to Inter as part of their efforts to land Thuram.
While Thuram remains a key target, he’s not the only player Liverpool is monitoring.
With the January transfer window now open, rumors are intensifying, especially regarding Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract expires at the end of the season.
Reports suggest that Liverpool is committed to signing Thuram and is preparing to make an official bid for the French forward.
Teamtalk has stated that Liverpool has shown strong interest in Thuram, who has been impressing in Serie A.
The forward has made a major impact at Inter Milan, scoring 12 goals and providing 3 assists in the league this season, solidifying his role as a key player with several standout goals.
To highlight his progress, Thuram has played half the number of games this season compared to last, yet is just one goal shy of matching his total for the 2023/24 campaign.
It’s important to note that Thuram’s release clause, set before his recent surge in form, is around £70 million.
However, Inter Milan is open to negotiations and may accept a lower offer. Liverpool has reportedly evaluated this price and considers it reasonable.
This marks the first step in the process: Liverpool sees this move as viable and is awaiting further updates.
Thuram is not the only player on Liverpool’s radar. Teamtalk also reports that Alexander Isak is another potential target.
Liverpool had shown interest in Isak before his transfer from Real Sociedad to Newcastle United.
His strong performances this season have sparked renewed interest from Liverpool, but his valuation has risen significantly since joining Newcastle, complicating any potential negotiations.
