There are few things in football uniquely expressive as a Liverpool chant.

More than just melodies on the terraces, they’re identity, attitude and tribal affection rolled into a few unforgettable lines.

When a new player earns a song from the Kop, it has a real meaning.



It means that they’ve been seen and embraced by whom they claim their own.

This is what has been presented to Federico Chiesa, with the Italian becoming a favourite amongst supporters during his first season with Liverpool.

His chant is already doing the rounds online, in the stands and we will be diving deeper into how this has all the hallmarks to become another Kop classic.

THE LYRICS

Liverpool chants are never just songs.

When the Kop crafts a new tune, it’s usually packed with sharp humour and pride.

Federico Chiesa’s new chant ticks these boxes.

Sang to the tune of ‘Sway’ by Dean Martin, the lyrics have instantly become a hit amongst Liverpool supporters.

It goes as follows:

“We can hear them crying in Turin,

Federico, he’s here to win,

One chat with Arne Slot and he said ciao,

F**k off Juve, I’m a Kopite now!”

This chant doesn’t need elaborate verses.

It’s direct and relatable because it feels authentic with the Anfield faithful.

There’s a jab at Chiesa’s former club, Juventus, a nod towards the manager and a proud declaration of loyalty – all wrapped up in four lines.

It’s raw, funny and more than anything, it signals that the fans have welcomed Federico Chiesa as one of their own, ready to back him even before his big moments arrive.

A CHANT BEFORE THE CHANCES

Despite limited minutes on the pitch this season, Federico Chiesa has already influenced the voices of the Kop.

His appearances have been brief, with injuries and competition for places being his main restrictions, but yet, the Liverpool supporters have had the chance to offer their backing to the player.

This acts a vote of confidence in what Chiesa is yet to achieve, not as a reaction to on-field heroics.

At Liverpool, where moments often define legacies, the early backing from the fans signals their belief in the Italian’s quality that hasn’t been unlocked.

The new Federico Chiesa song fits right in with some of the club’s all-time classics.

From Luis Garcia’s ‘Sangria’, Roberto Firmino’s ‘Si Senor’, Mohamed Salah’s ‘Egyptian King’ and Divock Origi on a Saturday night in Madrid, the new chant carries the same energy.

This will build a strong connection, while being the kind of tune that travels from Anfield to away grounds and back again.

For Chiesa’s song to be sung so early, it shows the fans believe in his ability and have high hopes for the Italian to deliver.

AN ANFIELD TRADITION

Liverpool have a knack for producing iconic chants.

For a club that’s rewriting itself under Arne Slot, these cultural touchpoints are vital.

No small thing for Federico Chiesa, who has had to adapt to a completely new football culture, whilst attempting to adapt to a new country and league, that requires a lot more intensity.

This chant is the sound of something louder brewing beneath the surface.

Chiesa’s Liverpool future remains unclear.

Injuries, form and fierce competition have all played their part in a stop-start first campaign.

He hasn’t had the platform to show what he is truly capable of – and there’s no guarantee that he’ll be given the opportunity.

The Italian has already been touted for a move back to his native country with several clubs monitoring the situation, like AC Milan and Napoli.

Whether Chiesa sticks around or leaves after just one season, this chant could keep its place on the Anfield terraces.

It’s catchy and captures the hope of the supporters, making it the kind of song that the Kop might keep singing for years to come.

The Italian’s Liverpool career may still be in its early days, but his chant has made the desired effect.

The songs of Anfield have always played a crucial role in shaping the connection between players and supporters, reflecting the club’s history and identity.

From the classic anthems dedicated to past legends, to those celebrating current stars, these choruses can create memories.

At Liverpool, a player’s legacy is much about the voice that carries their name as it is about their moments on the pitch.
