Quick Facts
Biography
Antonio Satriano (born 30 October 2003) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a centre-forward for Serie C Group A club Trento, on loan from Eredivisie club Heracles Almelo.
Club career
Early career and Roma
Born in Locri, Satriano started playing football at the local grassroots school Audax Gioiosa, before moving to Crotone in 2014. In the spring of 2018, aged 15, he was scouted by Roma during a match between the clubs' respective under-16 teams, and subsequently joined the Giallorossi's youth sector a few months later.
Having come through Roma's youth ranks, the forward signed his first professional contract with the club in September 2020, before reaching the final of the under-19 national championship in May 2022.
Heracles Almelo
On 5 January 2023, Satriano joined Dutch side Heracles Almelo on a permanent deal, signing a contract until June 2027. The transfer included an estimated fee of €400,000, with a 20% sell-on clause in favor of Roma on a future move.
The forward subsequently made his professional debut one week later, on 12 January, coming on as a substitute for Samuel Armenteros at the 72nd minute of a 0–1 KNVB Cup loss against Go Ahead Eagles. Three days later, he also made his league debut, coming on for Abdenego Nankishi in the final minutes of a 0–3 Eerste Divisie loss against PEC Zwolle. On 13 February, he made his first professional start in a 0–2 league win against MVV Maastricht. During the season, despite missing out on the last months due to a fifth metatarsal fracture, Satriano helped Heracles gain automatic promotion back to the Eredivisie after just one year.
Loan to Trento
On 23 January 2024, Satriano was loaned out to Serie C side Trento until the end of the season, with the deal including an option to buy.
International career
Satriano has represented Italy at youth international level.
After taking part in training camps with the under-15 (in 2017) and under-17 national teams (in 2019), he then went on to play for the under-20 national team.
Style of play
Satriano is a centre-forward, who has been regarded for his finishing, his physique and his technical skills. Despite being naturally right-footed, he can still use his left foot effectively.
