Besiktas to open talks in deal for Liverpool forward

Liverpool are gearing up for a major shake-up on the wings this summer, and the rumor mill is already heating up. The Premier League champions are reportedly eyeing Yan Diomande and Bradley Barcola as potential additions, with the club's management—led by Arne Slot and Richard Hughes—prioritizing pace, dribbling, and one-on-one quality out wide. After a season that fell short of expectations, the Reds are ready to inject fresh energy into their attack.

Big changes mean big exits, and Mohamed Salah is already set to move on after agreeing to terminate his £400k-per-week contract a year early. But he might not be the only one heading for the exit door. Federico Chiesa, the Italian winger signed from Juventus for £12m in September 2024, has struggled to make an impact under Slot. With just one Premier League start all season, the 28-year-old has been a bit-part player at best, and his time at Anfield looks to be winding down.

While Serie A clubs would welcome Chiesa back—provided his £150k-per-week wages drop—a new suitor has emerged. Turkish giants Besiktas are reportedly preparing to open talks for the forward. Coming off a disappointing Turkish Super Lig campaign, the Istanbul side has compiled a full dossier on Chiesa and is ready to make a move. According to FANATIK, head coach Sergen Yalçın has already given a thumbs-up, and official contact is expected at the end of the season.

Chiesa's contract runs until 2028, but it's hard to picture him sticking around on Merseyside. With Liverpool looking to reshape their attack, this summer could be the perfect time for a fresh start—both for the club and the player.
