Alex Pantling/Getty Images Turkish Super Lig club Besiktas are showing interest in Liverpool winger Federico Chiesa and are ‘conducting extensive research’ ahead of a possible swoop. Chiesa’s injury issues were very much evident in his first season in England, as he clocked only 104 minutes of Premier League football throughout the campaign.

A host of Serie A clubs wanted to bring him back to Italy last year, but Liverpool were cold on letting go of the winger. Last summer, it looked like the Italian could be on the move away from Anfield, as a host of Serie A clubs explored taking him away from Liverpool.

And now, according to Turkish outlet Fanatik (via A Spor), Turkish outfit Besiktas are showing genuine interest in Chiesa, for whom they are ‘conducting extensive research’. Besiktas boss Sergen Yalcin also likes the 28-year-old, who could be ending his Liverpool experience after two years if a deal can be done.
