On Wednesday afternoon, the winger was spotted at Turin’s airport, ready to board a flight to England, marking the beginning of his new chapter in the Premier League. Upon his departure, Chiesa took a moment to express his excitement about joining Liverpool and shared a heartfelt message for Juventus supporters.
An Emotional Goodbye to Juventus Fans
In a brief interview at the airport, Chiesa conveyed his gratitude and affection for the Juventus fans who supported him throughout his time in Turin. “I am very happy. I want to greet Juventus fans. Thank you for the love you’ve shown me. I’m sorry to part ways with the club, but I am truly excited to start a new adventure,” Chiesa said, as quoted by Sport Italia.
Chiesa joined Juventus from Fiorentina in 2020, with the Bianconeri paying around €57 million for the talented winger. During his time at Allianz Stadium, he made 131 appearances and scored 32 goals, helping the club to win two Coppa Italia titles and two Supercoppa Italiana trophies.
A New Challenge Awaits at Anfield
Under the guidance of Liverpool’s manager, Chiesa will compete for a spot in the lineup against star players like Mohamed Salah. With Liverpool currently sitting in 4th place after two Premier League matchdays, Chiesa’s arrival is expected to add further depth and versatility to the squad.
As Chiesa embarks on his new journey with Liverpool, fans of both clubs will be watching closely to see how he adapts to life in the Premier League.
