Liverpool fans are even more thrilled about their new signing, Federico Chiesa, after recent training footage revealed the Italian forward scoring some impressive goals. Chiesa joined Liverpool from Juventus on a four-year deal, initially costing £10 million with the potential to rise to £12.5 million through add-ons.
He attended Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday and has been actively integrating with his new team this week.
During the international break, Chiesa participated in training with Liverpool’s Under-21 squad. In one video, he was seen nutmegging a player and then curling a shot towards the goal.
The training footage showcasing Chiesa’s skills, including his precision in finding the bottom corner, has impressed Liverpool fans on social media. Another video captured him controlling the ball, evading a defender, and scoring with a shot into the top corner.
Liverpool supporters responded with enthusiasm, with one remarking, “Chiesa is going to be outstanding, truly incredible.”
Arne Slot praised Chiesa, sharing his expectations for what the 26-year-old will bring to Liverpool.
“We are really excited to have Federico join Liverpool,” the head coach told Liverpoolfc. “His talent has been evident for many years in both club and international football.”
“Federico is at a great age, bringing both experience and skill, with the potential for further improvement, which is very exciting for us.”
Chiesa also showed his capabilities by curling a shot into the top corner as he settled in with his new teammates.
