In his first interview with Liverpool’s official website, Chiesa expressed his enthusiasm about joining the historic club. “I am so happy to be a Liverpool player,” he said. “When Richard Hughes called and asked, ‘Do you want to join Liverpool?’ and then the coach reached out, I immediately said yes. I know the history of this club and what it means to the fans. I’m thrilled and can’t wait to get started.”
Chiesa also shared a special moment from his journey to Liverpool, recounting how seeing Anfield from the plane filled him with anticipation. “As soon as I saw Anfield, I told my wife, ‘Put on the song YNWA,’ because I wanted to imagine myself playing there and hearing the fans chant.”
Chiesa’s arrival at Liverpool is expected to bolster the team’s attacking options, making him a key player to watch in the upcoming season.
