LAFC chief Chiellini told Sky Italia: "I met him as a boy, he was little more than a child when he arrived and immediately made himself loved.
"In recent months I have written to him, he is now a man but for us he remains the boy we have seen growing up.
"He could have been a generational talent that has been a little lost due to injuries, now I hope he can come back to show up, he can go back to playing.
"He certainly committed a lightness, even if I don't know how things went, but my hope is to see him soon on the field because he is truly a golden boy."
