NewsFederico Chiesa's Liverpool shirt number revealed
Federico Chiesa will wear the No.14 shirt for Liverpool.
The Italy international selected the squad number after completing his transfer to the Reds from Juventus.
When asked if No.14 has special significance to him during his first interview with Liverpoolfc.com, Chiesa replied: “Yeah, it has actually.
“It’s the number I’ve been wearing with the national team but it was an easy pick because Liverpool sent me a video and at the end of this video – which was showing my career [and] the goals I scored with Fiorentina and Juventus – it was me with the No.14 shirt on so I said, ‘Ah, it was destined to be!’, so I chose the No.14.”
The number was last occupied by former captain Jordan Henderson, who had it for 12 seasons before his departure in 2023.
It has also been worn by Xabi Alonso, Milan Jovanovic, Vegard Heggem, Neil Ruddock and Jan Molby.
