Giorgio Chiellini Making MLS Move to LAFC, Sources Say
Los Angeles FC is finalizing a deal to bring veteran Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini to Major League Soccer, a person with knowledge of the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal still hasn’t been signed between LAFC and Chiellini, who is leaving Juventus after 17 decorated seasons with the Italian club. Since LAFC started playing as an expansion team in 2018, it hasn’t often followed the well-worn path of its crosstown rivals with the LA Galaxy in signing football superstars on the back end of their careers. Instead, LAFC has built its roster around Mexican striker Carlos Vela, who was still in his prime, with a supporting cast largely comprised of younger talents from around the globe, particularly South America.
