An exit rumour has emerged regarding Federico Chiesa‘s Liverpool future, as well as two separate Luis Diaz updates.
Today’s Main LFC Headline
According to journalist Orazio Accomando on X, AC Milan have made new contact with Liverpool over the loan signing of Chiesa this summer.
It is claimed that the Italian is “open” to the idea of joining the Serie A giants, although it may not be an easy deal to get over the line.
?#Milan, nuovi contatti con il #Liverpool per il prestito di Federico #Chiesa. L’ex Juve apre al trasferimento, ma trattativa non semplicissima perché al momento i Reds non aprono al prestito. L’interesse c’è e si andrà avanti. https://t.co/eEpwIxxG80

That’s because Liverpool are “not open” to sending Chiesa on loan, preferring to either keep him or sell him permanently.
The 27-year-old’s time at Anfield has been a disappointment, but retaining him still wouldn’t be a bad thing, for team spirit alone!
Today’s Liverpool FC News
- Liverpool have rejected an approach from Barcelona to sign Luis Diaz this summer, but there is no plan for a new deal. Right decision?
- Speaking of Diaz, he has confirmed talks with other clubs over a potential move, saying it is now up to Liverpool to see what they want to do. Angling for a move?
- Milos Kerkez‘s move to Liverpool could be close after a new update from Hungary boss Marco Rossi. He’s the perfect left-back addition!
- Florian Wirtz scored for Germany against Portugal last night, but Diogo Jota ended up having the last laugh. He looked class!
- Curtis Jones has summed up his love for Liverpool, saying he will “still keep his Scouse ways” and “won’t forget where he came from.” A sly dig at a certain someone?

More from This Is Anfield
This Is Anfield‘s individual season reviews are now in full swing, with David Lynch assessing Harvey Elliott‘s season and future:
“Ultimately, Elliott can improve in many aspects, but he can’t become quicker, taller or much stronger, and when you are already carrying Alexis Mac Allister and relatively diminutive full-backs, throwing him in becomes an issue.
“Still, there are no guarantees to be offered around Elliott, apart from to say that perhaps a desire to avoid too much turnover could earn him the reprieve of another season at Anfield.
“But his prospects for a stay beyond that currently look slim, which is a world away from the feeling around him just 12 months ago.”
Harvey Elliott never recovered from early setback – now faces future away from Anfield

Liverpool FC: On this day
June 5 isn’t exactly a memorable day in the history of Liverpool Football Club.
In fact, the only notable event that occurred on this day was the Reds signing Sean Dundee from Karlsruher SC in 1998.
The South African striker’s time at Liverpool proved to be a failure, however, with only five appearances and no goals to his name.
Dundee was sold to VfB Stuttgart the following year, swiftly being forgotten about on Merseyside.
