Riccardo Orsolini (born 24 January 1997) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Serie A club Bologna and the Italy national team.

Club career

Orsolini is a product of Ascoli's youth academy. He made his debut with the first team in the 2015–16 season in Serie B, obtaining 9 appearances in the league.

On 30 January 2017, Orsolini joined Juventus on a contract until June 2021, for a fee of €6 million, plus an extra €4 million dependent on certain conditions.[2] However Orsolini remains in Ascoli Piceno until the end of the season.

On 14 July 2017, Orsolini joined Atalanta on a two-year loan.[3]

Orsolini moved back to Juve and then on loan to Bologna F.C. 1909 in a January 2018 after making just substitute appearances for Atalanta. The loan is for 18 months with an option to buy.[4] On 19 June 2019, Orsolini signed a deal with Bologna and signed the club on permanent basis.[5]

International career

With the Italy U-20 side, Orsolini took part at the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and led the tournament in goals, scoring five, as Italy finished the competition in third place, their best ever result.[6][7] Due to his prolific performances, he was named by many in the media as the outright best player on the Italian side.[8]

He made his debut with the Italy U21 team on 1 September 2017, under manager Luigi Di Biagio, in a 3–0 friendly defeat against Spain.

Orsolini made his senior international debut for Italy on 18 November 2019, under manager Roberto Mancini, coming on as a substitute for Nicolò Barella in a 9–1 home win over Armenia, in Italy's final Euro 2020 qualifier; he marked the occasion by scoring his first international goal, and also later provided an assist for Federico Chiesa's goal.[9]

Style of play

Orsolini is a physically strong and fast-paced winger, who excels in one on one situations due to his excellent dribbling ability. Although he is naturally left-footed, he prefers to play on the right flank, in either a 4–3–3 or 4–2–3–1 formation, a position which allows him to cut into the centre and shoot on goal with his stronger foot.[10][11][12]
