Chiesa found the bottom corner with his effort while training with Liverpool’s under-21 side

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.

Another clip, showed the Italian forward controlling the ball, before dribbling past a defender and firing into the roof of the net. 

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.

The Italian bent one into the top corner as he got to grips with some of his new team-mates

‘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.’

Chiesa remained with Liverpool during the international break, with Italy boss Luciano Spalletti revealing the club are doing specific work to prepare him for action. 

Liverpool said the Italian forward’s preparations included a workout with Barry Lewtas’ Under-21 squad, which also featured Rio Ngumoha, who has joined Liverpool’s academy from Chelsea.
