Overview
- Chiesa, assessed at Italy’s Coverciano base on Monday, was declared unavailable and left the camp in agreement with Liverpool to continue rehabilitation at the club’s AXA Training Centre.
- Gennaro Gattuso said the winger had minor physical issues and called it useless for him to stay, adding that a wavering frame of mind guided the joint decision to send him home.
- The Italian FA provided no return timeline, and reports describe a lingering problem rather than a clear new injury, which keeps his short-term status uncertain for club and country.
- At Liverpool this season he has largely been a substitute with few starts and limited minutes, a pattern outlets say has stalled rhythm and fueled debate about his role under Arne Slot.
- Multiple publications note renewed transfer talk as speculation links a summer exit, including reports of Juventus interest and a possible low-fee move, though any deal remains unconfirmed.
