Footage of Federico Chiesa training with Liverpool's U21s has got fans talking, it's gone viral

Federico Chiesa has got Liverpool fans talking after footage of the winger in training emerged.

Last month, it was confirmed that Italian forward Chiesa had joined Liverpool from Serie A giants Juventus, in a deal worth a reported fee of £12.5 million.

Upon joining the club, the 26-year-old said: “I’m so happy to be a Liverpool player. When Richard Hughes called me and he said, ‘Do you want to join Liverpool?’ – and the coach called me – I said yes immediately because I know the history of this club, I know what it represents to the fans. So, I’m so happy and I can’t wait to get started.

“And I just want to say something that stuck to my mind when I was about to land [in] the aeroplane. I saw Anfield and as soon as I saw Anfield I said to my wife, 'Put the song on, YNWA, because I want to imagine myself playing there and hearing the chant of the fans.’”

After his move, Chiesa was left out of the Italy squad for the latest international break.

With a number of Liverpool stars away playing for their country, Chiesa was spotted training with some of the club’s youngsters.

In a video posted on social media, Chiesa showed his class as he produced a fine curling shot into the top corner.

Reacting, one fan said: “I hope he starts our next game.”

Another tweeted: “Clinical is what he is.”

A third fan added: “My boy will score alot of goals this season.”

Someone else wrote: “Thats the type of players we really need, clinical and direct on goal.”

A fifth commented: “Luis Diaz on form and Cheisa looking good is a good problem to have.”

Speaking about Chiesa, Liverpool boss Arne Slot said: “I don’t think anyone will need me to tell them about his quality because it has been very clear for a number of years in both club football and international football.

“Federico is at a really good age. He brings experience and talent, but at the same time he brings the potential to keep on getting better and this is something that really excites us.”
