Barely arrived, Chiellini is already using his hands in MLS / MLS / Real Salt Lake-LAFC (1-4) / SOFOOT.com

There are habits that cannot be lost.

Having left for the other side of the Atlantic, in Los Angeles, this summer, Giorgio Chiellini did not, however, become another man. Facing Real Salt Lake (4-1 success), the former Juventus gratified the Rio Tinto Stadium with a superb defensive block.

Left on the counterattack, the Royals tried to lob the Italian who did not hesitate to use his hands to cut off this action, only receiving a yellow card in the process. A movement which undoubtedly brought back bad memories to Monegasque supporters but which must have pleased Earvin Ngapeth and his little teammates from the French volleyball team.

After Euro 2020, heading to the 2024 Olympics for Chiellini? And if that was the American dream.
