Slot’s side reportedly held exploratory talks with Juve earlier this week and they have decided to ‘proceed’ with the pursuit.
Liverpool are in discussions with the Italy international over a four-year deal.
The Reds have been heavily linked with signing a forward this summer, with reports speculating on several occasions that Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz could depart. However, despite both players appearing set to stay at Anfield, signing an alternative option out wide.
Chiesa is also capable of playing on either flank as well as through the middle, and his versatility is likely to be a very attractive attribute on Merseyside.
