LAFC announced today that legendary Italian defender and former LAFC player Giorgio Chiellini has joined the club’s ownership group. Chiellini retired in 2023 after a remarkable 22-year career as a player, which included his final two seasons with LAFC.

“Joining the LAFC ownership group is a great honor for me,” Chiellini said. “When I arrived here three years ago as a player, I immediately felt that there was something special about this club. It is an ambitious organization, built by extraordinary people and supported by a community that truly makes you feel at home. That is why, last year, I expressed my desire to become an owner, and now I’m proud to continue this journey and give my support to a project I deeply believe in.”
