&lt;p&gt;📝 Bio&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Born in 1986, enchanted by the “God of football” since the age of six. Summers after school spent in newsstands, flipping through newspapers, gave me the certainty of what I wanted to become: a football writer — someone capable of explaining what happens on that green field that delivers emotions and still makes me feel thrilled every time I climb the steps of the press box to follow Napoli as a correspondent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Matches on TV, a second life at the stadium, thoughts turned into words while chasing a dream that eventually came true. Reporting on Scudetti confirmed how privileged I am to have chosen this path: writing articles drains you and excites you at the same time, while field experiences give you a sense of magic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A registered public journalist since 2009, part of the GOAL family since 2011. I love tactics, I&apos;m fascinated by everything that belongs to the people, and I go crazy for stories that are unexpected or born from the bottom. Humility and simplicity — but always believing in what you do.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🧠 Areas of Expertise&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Italian football&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tactics&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Storytelling&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✍🏻 Favorite Articles&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Adios Diego: a piece of Naples is gone&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sarri’s rise in Naples: the ‘Commander’ in a tracksuit&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mertens, ‘Ciro’ of Naples: nine years of love&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gaucci’s Perugia: Nakata &amp;amp; Co., a ‘world-class’ team&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dino Fava and Lo Stato Sociale’s book: the promotion goals with Bologna that changed everything&lt;/p&gt;
