CaughtOffside, citing the Liverpool Echo, reported that Federico Chiesa and Wataru Endo now look increasingly likely to leave Liverpool next year. The outlet reported that Liverpool’s recent squad planning suggests the club are prepared to move on from several experienced fringe players as they continue reshaping the team.
Endo's position
Endo is 33 years old and his contract is due to expire in 2027. CaughtOffside reported that he has fallen well down the midfield pecking order and has barely featured this season.
January offers and Serie A interest
CaughtOffside reported that reports have suggested Liverpool could listen to January offers rather than risk losing him for nothing later in the year. Interest from Serie A has persisted, with AC Milan and other Italian clubs previously linked with bringing him back to his homeland.
Liverpool's planning
CaughtOffside reported that neither Chiesa nor Endo has established himself as a key figure under Andoni Iraola. The outlet also reported that Liverpool are already considering midfield reinforcements for 2027, while attacking targets such as Ismaïla Sarr and other wide forwards have continued to feature in transfer discussions.
