Chiesa had a very underwhelming first season at Liverpool, although injuries and a lack of game time didn't help his cause. But his superb strike against the Cherries has meant he has 'won over his team-mates'. The report adds the winger is well-liked in Slot's dressing room, so Arsenal and Manchester City can fight it out for Rodrygo.
