Federico Chiesa Eyes Transfer Amid Plea to Play

Federico Chiesa is looking to leave his current team after a disappointing season with limited playing time.

The 28-year-old Italian winger had a strong start to the season but failed to secure a spot in the starting XI under former manager Arne Slot.

He scored against Bournemouth and Crystal Palace and provided two assists against Southampton in the Carabao Cup.

But despite his efforts, Chiesa was unable to work his way into the team.

Chiesa expressed his desire to play regularly, saying "I want to play and if I don’t find continuity in the Premier League I’ll need to find it elsewhere."

He had **next to no minutes** in the recent season.

The Italian will discuss his future with the club and new manager Andoni Iraola after pre-season in the US.

Nottingham Forest may be an ideal destination for Chiesa, given their struggles with wingers Dan Ndoye and Dilane Bakwa.

The team is looking to build on a strong end to the season under Vitor Pereira.

Chiesa's versatility, being able to play on the right, left, and through the middle, makes him an attractive signing.

He remains a player with huge quality, still in his prime, despite injuries in recent years.

Signing Chiesa would be a **no-brainer** for Nottingham Forest, with little to lose and much to gain.

The transfer window is an opportunity for the team to strengthen their squad.

Chiesa's experience and skill would be a valuable addition to the team.

Nottingham Forest finished five points clear of relegation under Vitor Pereira, who arrived in February.

The team is now looking to avoid a similar season and make a strong start to the new campaign.

Federico Chiesa's situation could develop quickly over the coming weeks, with a potential move to Nottingham Forest on the cards.
