After retiring from professional football in 2023 following his stint at LAFC in Major League Soccer, Chiellini transitioned into a strategic executive role at Juventus. As Director of Football Strategy, he focuses on football operations, long-term sporting development, and institutional relations.

As part of the FIGC’s Federal Council, Chiellini will contribute to discussions on policy, regulation, and development strategies shaping the future of Italian football, bringing both the perspective of an experienced player and that of a club executive.
