Club set out their conditions for Federico Chiesa deal

Liverpool still have got plenty of transfer business to attend to - with only three weeks left before the start of the Premier League season. It's already been a record-breaking summer for the Reds - who have added Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Giorgi Mamardashvili. LFC Kits Shop Now LFC x New Era Shop Now LFC Signed Merch Shop Now LFC x Titleist Shop Now But sporting director Richard Hughes and head coach Arne Slot aren't stopping there. Plans are afoot to add Alexander Isak in a deal which would shatter the British transfer record that Wirtz's signing broke earlier this summer. If and when Isak comes on board there will be a necessity for the Reds to make sales. Having spent over £260m to this point, the club will be keen to make as much money back as they can. Liverpool title winners at risk Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz should be the biggest departures - with Saudi Arabian clubs keen on Nunez and Diaz attracting serious interest from Bayern Munich. Those two alone would go a long way towards paying for Isak - but other players remain at risk. We could see Harvey Elliott, Tyler Morton and Ben Doak all head out the door as Hughes and Slot try to balance the books. And one more big wage-earner who could leave is . Chiesa at a Liverpool crossroads It's fair to say the deal hasn't worked out as yet for the 27-year-old - who joined the Reds from Juventus last September for a fee that could reach £12.5m. He is under contract until 2028 - but is expected to find himself at a new club by the end of this transfer window. Liverpool are probably not going to seek a huge fee for the Italian international - who has got plenty of suitors back in Serie A. Napoli and AC Milan are among the keenest clubs but could imminently face competition from Atalanta. © IMAGO - Federico Chiesa Liverpool Atalanta make their move for Chiesa La Dea have laid their cards on the table for a Chiesa deal - which they will focus on once Ademola Lookman's impending move to Inter is sorted out. According to a new report, Atalanta have set out their limits for Chiesa - meaning Liverpool have to consider the deal on it merits. 'Enquiries are underway regarding the Liverpool-Bergamo connection,' reports Il Giorno. 'No negotiations are underway for now, as Atalanta must first unravel the Lookman tangle, but in the meantime, the Nerazzurri management is starting to make quiet moves to explore a low-cost deal for Federico Chiesa. 'Atalanta are considering it, but only on their terms: a loan with an optional €10 million buyout option. Liverpool will cover part of his €5 million salary.' © IMAGO

Report – Inter Milan Ready To Raise Offer For Atalanta Talisman To €45M

Inter Milan are reportedly ready to raise their offer to sign Atalanta and Nigeria forward Ademola Lookman to €45 million. This according to the Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Inter have already had one offer for Ademola Lookman rejected. Last week, the Nerazzurri put a bid of around €40 million on the table for the Nigerian international. They hoped that this would be enough to quickly seal a deal. However, Atalanta rejected this first offer. Reportedly, La Dea are holding out for somewhere in the region of €50 million. Inter Milan To Increase Ademola Lookman Offer To €45M BERGAMO, ITALY – MAY 12: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta warms up prior to the Serie A match between Atalanta and AS Roma at Gewiss Stadium on May 12, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, this new offer will arrive by Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. Inter's intention is to wrap things up as soon as possible.

Therefore, Inter will present a new offer worth around €45 million, according to the Corriere dello Sport.

Fabrizio Romano: Everton in ‘advanced talks' to hijack Liverpool's move for €50m forward

Everton Target Malick Fofana in Bid to Boost Attacking Options Advanced Talks Underway for Belgian Talent Everton are pressing forward in their pursuit of Olympique Lyonnais winger Malick Fofana, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. Talks are now at an advanced stage, with direct contact established between the Toffees and the French club over a potential summer move. The 20-year-old Belgian international appears poised to leave Lyon this window, as the club navigates financial pressures following their reinstatement to Ligue 1 by the DNCG. Fofana, who has already attracted interest from Liverpool and Bayern Munich, is one of Lyon's more valuable assets and now sits firmly on Everton's radar. The Merseyside club are looking to bolster their wide options and see the versatile attacker as a key addition ahead of the new Premier League campaign. Relegation Reversal Spurs Lyon Fire Sale Lyon's financial constraints have become a central theme of their summer business. The club's reprieve from relegation came with strict conditions from the DNCG, requiring them to raise funds through player sales. Fofana, whose development at OL has not gone unnoticed across Europe, now finds himself at the centre of a transfer tug-of-war. Personal Terms and Player Preference Still Pending While Everton have established contact with Fofana's representatives, personal terms are yet to be finalised. A fee had reportedly been agreed between Lyon and Nottingham Forest earlier this window, but Fofana declined the move. His willingness to join Everton remains uncertain. The Toffees now face a crucial period in convincing the player of their project, especially with clubs like Liverpool and Bayern also showing interest. Strategic Move or Risky Gamble? At just 20 years of age, Fofana would represent both a long-term investment and a potential game-changer for David Moyes' side. Everton are in urgent need of pace and creativity in wide areas – two qualities the Belgian has shown in flashes during his time in Ligue 1 and on the European stage. Whether they can land their man may depend on how compelling a pitch they present in the coming days. Our View – EPL Index Analysis From an Everton fan's point of view, the move for Malick Fofana feels like a bold but sensible step toward modernising a squad that's cried out for dynamism. The club has lacked real flair on the flanks since Richarlison's departure, and Fofana, with his ability to beat players and break lines, could be the injection of energy needed. However, there are understandable reservations. Fofana is young, largely unproven in top-flight football outside of France, and might need time to adapt to the physicality of the Premier League. Fans will remember past gambles on potential – names like Moise Kean and Jean-Philippe Gbamin – which didn't quite work out. That said, this feels like a different scenario. Fofana turned down Forest, which suggests he's making decisions based on football, not finances. There's also the question of whether David Moyes can fully utilise a player like Fofana, who thrives in a more expansive system. Moyes' teams often lean on structure over flair, but with the club aiming to progress, perhaps this is a sign of stylistic evolution. If Everton can seal the deal and give him the platform to grow, it could be one of the smarter deals of the summer. But if he opts for a club like Bayern or Liverpool, fans will understand – and perhaps rue – another opportunity missed.
