Paulo Dino Gazzaniga (born 2 January 1992) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for English club Southampton.

Club career

Early career

Gazzaniga joined Valencia CF's youth setup in 2007,[3] after starting out with hometown side Unión y Cultura.[4] However, he failed to make a first team appearance for the Che, and was subsequently released in May 2011.

Gillingham

In July 2011, Gazzaniga signed a two-year deal with League Two side Gillingham, to challenge Ross Flitney for the number one spot.[5] He made his professional debut for the club on 4 October, in a 3–1 home defeat to Barnet in the Football League Trophy.[6]

Southampton

On 20 July 2012, Gazzaniga signed a four-year deal with newly promoted Premier League side Southampton, with Tommy Forecast going to Gillingham on loan as part of the deal.[7][8] He described it as "a crazy situation" but said it was like "a dream".[9]

Gazzaniga made his debut on 28 August in a 4–1 victory against Stevenage in the second round of the League Cup.[10] He made his league debut almost a month later, on 22 September in a 4–1 win against Aston Villa.[11]

Gazzaniga was used as cover for first choice keepers Kelvin Davis, Artur Boruc and Fraser Forster, making only two appearances in 2014–15.[12] Gazzaniga started his first match of 2015–16 on 12 December 2015 in a 1–0 defeat away to Crystal Palace.[13]
