Federico Chiesa

Chiesa recorded two shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Wednesday's 3-2 loss against PSV Eindhoven.

Chiesa had two shots (two on goal) in Tuesday's 2-1 win against Lille.

Chiesa is still building fitness and earning a larger role under Arne Slot. "So, it's a combination of reasons why he didn't play that much yet, but let's wait and see in the upcoming weeks and months if he's able to help us, because the second half of the season is even more important than the first half."

Chiesa (illness) is on the bench for Thursday's game against Leicester City.

Chiesa was absent from Liverpool's squad for Sunday's match due to illness, as confirmed by coach Arne Slot in the press conference. "Sick, he was ill. Unfortunately for him because he had some minutes against Southampton [in the Cup]. But unfortunately he was sick for the last two days (Friday and Saturday) and today (Sunday) as well so we couldn't bring him to the game," Slot said. It remains uncertain whether Chiesa has fully recovered, and he is considered doubtful for Thursday's clash with Leicester.
