Description:

Vittorio Parigini joined Torino youth academy when he was 10 years old and since his very early years has shown a great football talent. He was added to Primavera squad in 2012 and managed to score 5 goals in 17 matches of Campionato Primavera despite being only 16. Before the current season he was sent on loan to Serie B side Juve Stabia to gain experience at the senior level and so far played in 8 games at the second-highest division in the Italian football league system. He was a member and a very effective substitute of the Italy U-17 team, which won a silver medal at the UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship 2013 in Slovakia. Few months later, at the FIFA U-17 World Cup in United Arab Emirates he was already a first team regular, but young “Squadra Azzurra” boys failed and were eliminated by Mexico already in the round of 16.

Quotes:

“The age gap does not stop Vittorio, who shows his qualities: great physical strength, good technique, acceleration and explosiveness.”
