Highly-rated Italian striker Federico Chiesa (often referred to as Chiesa Jr.) is close to finalizing his move to join Premier League giants Liverpool, according to a new report from renowned journalist Mirko Di Natale. The 26-year-old will be offered a lucrative annual contract at Liverpool, expected to reach €7 million with additional bonus clauses.

Previously, several media outlets and journalists have already reported Liverpool's interest in Chiesa Jr. and revealed that the two sides are about to sign a four-year contract. Currently, Chiesa Jr. has arrived in Liverpool and is ready to undergo a medical examination by the club, marking a substantial stage in his transfer.

Chiesa Jr. showed excellent performances for Juventus last season as he made 37 appearances, 29 of which were as a starter. During this period, he managed to score 10 goals and dished out 2 assists, contributing significantly to the offensive end of the team. His pace, technique and shooting ability are widely recognized, which is why Liverpool has taken a keen interest in him.

For Liverpool, the addition of Junior Chiesa will undoubtedly further enhance the team's attacking prowess. His arrival will increase the team's versatility in front of goal and provide the team with more attacking options. At the same time, his experience and strength will also have a positive impact on the team's young players and help them grow better.
