Liverpool fans claim Federico Chiesa ‘is going to be special’ after watching their new signing net two brilliant goals in training

Liverpool supporters have become even more excited about new signing Federico Chiesa after seeing the Italian score two fine goals in training.

Liverpool landed the forward on a four-year deal from Juventus earlier last week for an initial fee of £10million, possibly rising to £12.5m with add-ons. 

He was in attendance at Old Trafford for for Sunday’s 3-0 victory over Man United and was seen getting down to work with his new team on Thursday during the international break.

Two clips were shared on X of Chiesa showing off his goal scoring prowess and the Reds fans enjoyed what they saw.

The first saw him pick up the ball on the right before skinning a defender and placing the ball into the bottom left with his right foot.

The second was more special, Chiesa receiving the ball 20 yards from goal and curling it into the top right corner.

The Liverpool faithful were quick to reply to the videos with one writing ‘Chiesa is going to be special, so so special.’

Another wrote: ‘things you love to see, Fede’ with a strong emoji, while one simply said ‘taking the p*** Fede.’

Arne Slot was full of praise for Chiesa when he explained what he thinks the 26-year-old will bring to Liverpool following the transfer.

‘We are really happy to bring Federico to Liverpool,’ the head coach told Liverpoolfc.com.

‘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.

‘I have said all summer that it is not easy to sign players for Liverpool because the standard of players we have is so high but in Federico I firmly believe we are signing someone who enhances what is already here.

‘It’s not just his talents physically; Federico has experience of winning trophies, of course one with his national team, and dealing with setbacks and challenges. It’s the mentality we want here at Liverpool.

‘Not only this, but he is someone who has an incredible work-rate to match his talent.

‘He is a player who can make an impact and can help the team, so this is credit to Richard Hughes and everyone involved in bringing him to Liverpool.

‘For now, the priority is for Federico to join the squad, involve himself in training and after this we can look forward to what the future holds.’
