Major League Soccer is trying to get the most ammount of superstars as possible. The main objective is to include the best players around the world and they suceeded for the 2022 season with a couple of names. One of them is Giorgio Chiellini, who is waiting anxiously to make his debut with LAFC in this final part of the campaign.
LAFC made two huge blockbuster moves this summer. The black and gold club went to Europe to sign to big stars as Gareth Bale and Giorgo Chiellini. This last one has just retired from Italy's national team against Argentina during the Finalissima at Wembley Stadium. Now, he is focused on winning titles in the MLS with his new squad.
Chiellini's career is, no doubt, one of the best for an Italian centre-back in the 21st Century. He won 20 titles with Juventus during his 15 years with La Vecchia Signora. With Italy, his biggest achievement was in 2020 when he led his national team to the UEFA Euro's title, defeating England in the final match.
When will Giorgo Chiellini make his LAFC debut?
It was uncertain if Giorgio Chiellini could appear at the beginning of July with LAFC. The big announcement of his transfer was made when the Serie A ended its campaign, but some issues with his international pass delayed his debut with his new club.
The Italian legend couldn't play against Vancouver (July 2nd), so it is probable that he will do at one of the most attractive and important games of the season: vs LA Galaxy. The Los Angeles Derby, also called 'El Trafico' will be played this July 8th and the LAFC's Twitter account posted an image of Giorgio Chiellini training alongside his new teammates, giving the fans a hint that he could be availale for the match.
