Liverpool official announcement:
Fedrico Chiesa has joined Liverpool's Champions League lineup.
UEFA approved Liverpool's request to add Chiesa to the Champions League player roster, a move that meets new regulations allowing changes to the roster in the absence of players.
Chiesa will replace Giovanni Leoni as a member of the club's roster of UEFA Champions League stage and qualify for next week's away game against Galatasaray.
At a press conference on Friday, Liverpool coach Slot confirmed that the team's defender Leoni suffered a torn cruciate ligament and will be out for about one year.
