Luca Pellegrini (born 7 March 1999) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a left back or left wing-back for Serie A club Lazio, on loan from Juventus.

Club career

Roma

On 17 April 2018, Pellegrini signed his first professional contract with A.S. Roma keeping him at the club until 2021.[4]

Pellegrini joined the first team in the 2018–19 season, aged 19. He made his professional and Serie A debut in a 4–0 win over Frosinone on 26 September 2018, making the assist for Aleksandar Kolarov's goal.[5][6] He made his UEFA Champions League debut on 2 October 2018, in the group stage match won 5–0 against FC Viktoria Plzeň.[citation needed]

Loan to Cagliari

On 31 January 2019, Pellegrini joined Cagliari on loan until 30 June 2019.[7]

Juventus

On 30 June 2019, Luca Pellegrini joined Serie A champions Juventus for €22 million, with Leonardo Spinazzola moving in the opposite direction for €29.5 million.[8] On 19 August 2019, he rejoined Cagliari on loan for the 2019–20 season.[9] On 26 September 2020, Pellegrini moved to Genoa on a one-year loan.[10] He moved to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga on a one-year loan on 12 August 2022.[11] On 31 January 2023, Pellegrini was recalled from the Eintracht loan and loaned to Lazio instead, with an option to buy.[12] On 17 August 2023, Pellegrini rejoined Lazio on a two-year loan with the option to make the deal permanent, which becomes an obligation if certain conditions are met.[13]

International career

Pellegrini made his debut with the Italy U21 team on 11 October 2018, in a friendly match lost 1–0 against Belgium.[citation needed]

With the Italy U20 side he took part in the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup, in which Italy achieved a fourth–place finish.[14]

He received his first call up to the Italy senior squad for the team's UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying matches against Armenia and Finland in September 2019.[15]

He made his senior debut with Italy on 11 November 2020, featuring as a substitute in a 4–0 friendly win over Estonia in Florence.[16]

Despite appearing in earlier qualifiers,[17] he was not selected for Italy's 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship squad. He was unavailable for selection as he was suffering from a persistent adductor muscle injury beginning in February 2021.[18]

Style of play

Although he usually plays as a left-back, Pellegrini has also been used as an offensive-minded central midfielder, known as the "mezzala" role, in Italian. A physically powerful and technically gifted defender, he is also known for his quality, stamina, consistency, and work-rate. Regarded in the media as a promising young player, in July 2019 he was included in UEFA.com's "50 for the future" list of "ones to watch in 2019–20."[6][19][20][21]
