Personal:
Francesco has honed his skills and passion for soccer through years of dedication in both Italy and the Netherlands. His experience in diverse soccer environments has shaped him into a versatile and well-rounded player who excels at adapting to different game styles and challenges. As a right-footed winger and striker, Francesco is renowned for his speed, athleticism, and relentless work ethic. His pace allows him to cover ground quickly, and in 1v1 situations, he effectively leverages this advantage. Additionally his 1v1 defending is strong as well, and his speed and defensive skills allow him to win the ball back quickly. Another key strength is his goal-scoring ability—Francesco demonstrates sharp instincts in the penalty box, reacting quickly and executing shots with both feet even in tight spaces.

In the fall of 2024, Francesco participated in the Inspire Development Academy hosted by Sheffield University. He was one of only 18 players selected to join the camp, which ran through September and October. During this intensive program, Francesco trained five times a week, combining on-field sessions with gym workouts. The academy also provided opportunities to compete against well-known professional clubs in England, further enhancing his skills and experience.

Francesco graduated from the International School of Utrecht in the spring of 2024 with an IB Diploma and a 3.33 GPA.
