During Chiellini’s storied 18-year career with the Italian national team, he earned 117 caps and, most notably, was Italy’s captain during their UEFA Euro 2020 title run. He was named Defender of the Tournament following the team’s triumph at Wembley Stadium.
Chiellini announced his retirement from professional soccer in December 2023, following two successful seasons in Major League Soccer with Los Angeles FC. In January, LAFC announced Chiellini would be returning to the club as a player development coach.
Prior to joining LAFC, Chiellini was a defensive staple in Italy with Juventus, spending 18 years with the Serie A powerhouse. He was an instrumental part of an unprecedented run between 2011 and 2020 that saw Juventus win nine straight Serie A titles. His 561 matches played rank third on Juventus’ all-time appearance list, and he was awarded Serie A Defender of the Year three years in a row, from 2008 to 2010. His career also included stints at Fiorentina, Roma and Livorno, where he began his club career in 2000.
