Matteo Politano

Our player likes single-seater cars, apparently. We do not know if he also races them. How is Silvia going to fit in that thing?

Although he is of Calabrian origin, our winger is a true AS Roma youth product. He spent the entirety of his youth playing for Roma before being eligible for the senior side. The unusual report about his time with the capital team is that he has not made one appearance for the senior side, unlike Bruno Conti, after whom he gets his nickname, who spent the entirety of his career with the Rome based team, except for a couple of loan spells. One season with Perugia saw him gain enough first-team action, which expedited his move to Pescara. Our winger spent a couple of seasons with them before Sassuolo, where he would establish himself as a regular. He played for them for three seasons and spent the final year of his Sassuolo contract with Inter Milan. He impressed the Nerazzurri bosses enough for them to make the move permanent in 2019. A rather short player, our winger's low center of gravity aids him in his game, and he does have good close control dribbling ability. He can also play on either wing and sometimes behind the striker as well. This Italy international has served his country in the Under-19,20 and 21 levels. He made his senior debut in 2018 but doesn't star, for Italy, as often as he would like to. In the summer of 2021 he went to Napoli.
