Federico Chiesa Set to Return for Liverpool Against Girona

Federico Chiesa, the Italian forward who transferred from Juventus to Liverpool during the summer transfer window, is expected to make his much-anticipated return to the squad in the upcoming Champions League fixture against Girona. Chiesa's tenure at Liverpool has been marred by injuries, limiting him to just 77 minutes of play since his arrival.

In recent weeks, Chiesa has been diligently working through his rehabilitation process, with no definitive timeline set for his return. However, sources close to Liverpool indicate that he is likely to feature in this week's Champions League match.

Manager Arne Slot and his squad are set to face Girona on Tuesday night in the group stage of the Champions League. The team aims to maintain their winning momentum in the competition.

Slot previously stated that Chiesa's return would provide Mohamed Salah with much-needed rest during this demanding season. It is anticipated that the Italian forward will start in place of Salah in the upcoming match.
