Arne Slot's Liverpool remain on top in the Premier League and Champions League but need to decide whether to add to their ranks before the January transfer window shuts

Federico Chiesa has been heavily linked with a move away from Liverpool, but the Italian may have something else on his mind now.

Liverpool eased into the fourth round of the FA Cup after brushing aside EFL League Two outfit Accrington Stanley 4-0 at Anfield.

Italian national team manager Luciano Spalletti has stated that he is "very favourable" towards Liverpool forward Federico Chiesa returning to Italian football.

Liverpool ensured there would be no giant-killing in the FA Cup as they dispatched Accrington Stanley, with Federico Chiesa on target.

Liverpool fans have been left concerned after hearing manager Arne Slot's update on Federico Chiesa - particularly after watching his encouraging display against Accrington Stanley. The Italian winger signed for the Reds from Juventus in the summer but has made just four appearances for his new club.

In the closing stages, Liverpool substitutes Jayden Danns and Federico Chiesa got on the scoresheet with the latter netting his first goal for the Reds. Chiesa is smiling now! The winger receives the ball on the inside right part of the pitch and runs down the channel. He gets close to the box and drills a shot across goal.

Liverpool’s win over Accrington Stanley offered much more than progression in the FA Cup. It was a reminder of the depth in the squad and the potential of players like Elliott, Chiesa, and Danns. The match also underlined the challenges of integrating fringe players into a highly competitive environment under Arne Slot.

Federico Chiesa wants to stay at Liverpool for the rest of the season despite interest from Napoli to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Liverpool dominated Accrington Stanley with a 4-0 win in the FA Cup, featuring goals from Diogo Jota, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Federico Chiesa.
