Francesco Filippo Zampano (born 30 September 1993) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a full-back for Serie A club Venezia.
Club career
[edit]Sampdoria
[edit]Born in Genoa, Liguria along with his twin brother Giuseppe, they spent their youth career inside the Italian region. Giuseppe[2] and Francesco[2][3] both played for Genoese side U.C. Sampdoria's U17 team during the 2009–10 season.
Virtus Entella
[edit]In the 2010–11 season both left for another Ligurian team Virtus Entella (named after the river).[4][5][6] In the 2011–12 season Entella signed Francesco in a co-ownership deal for a peppercorn of €500,[7] and Giuseppe returned to Sampdoria for their under-19 team. Francesco played for both first team and the U19 team for Entella.[8] Among the defenders of Lega Pro who were born in 1991 or after, Francesco had the fourth highest average score of 6.24/10 ranked by La Gazzetta dello Sport, and was the best Lega Pro defender born in the 1993 age group.[9] In June 2012, Sampdoria failed to buy back Alberto Masi and Francesco Zampano, both due to failing to give the highest price in a sealed bid to Lega Serie B.[10] A.Masi and F.Zampano were the teammates who represented the team of Lega Pro.
Verona
[edit]During summer 2013 he moved to Verona, and then became on loan to Juve Stabia.
Pescara
[edit]After his loan period ended following the 2014–15 season, Zampano was loaned to Pescara, with an option to purchase.[11] On 23 July 2015, Pescara signed Zampano outright.[12]
On 16 August 2018, Zampano joined to Serie A team Frosinone on loan until 30 June 2019 with an obligation to buy.[13]
Venezia
[edit]On 1 June 2022, Zampano signed a three-year contract with Venezia.[14]
International career
[edit]Francesco Zampano received his first national team call-up in his breakthrough 2011–12 season. Zampano scored a goal against the Italy U19 team when representing the Lega Pro U20 representative team in December 2011.[15][16] Zampano made his debut for the Italy U19 side on 29 February 2012. He played all 3 games of the 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship elite qualification in May.[17] He also received a call-up from the Lega Pro representative team for a youth tournament in Dubai in April,[18] however, he did not play.
