Rising Star Attracts Top Clubs

Nicolò Tresoldi (21) is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after young talents in European football. Having impressed during his first season with Club Brugge, where he scored 12 goals in 42 matches – including 3 in the Champions League – the forward is now attracting the attention of several major clubs.

Champions League Impact

Tresoldi’s performances have been particularly notable in the Champions League, including one against Atlético Madrid in the C1 first leg play-off. His ability to discover the back of the net on the biggest stage has undoubtedly contributed to his growing reputation.

International Dilemma

Born in Sardinia, and a fan of Pippo Inzaghi, the son of former Serie A player Emanuele Tresoldi currently represents Germany U21. Still, he has expressed a desire to potentially represent Italy in the future.

“For me, Italy remains Italy, but a few years ago I decided to play for Germany: they showed me the way, I immediately felt loved, including by the federation. For a player, it’s important. I never received a call from Coverciano (the Italian Clairefontaine, Editor’s note), so for the moment, I’m continuing with Germany.”

Tresoldi admitted he would have welcomed contact from the Italian Football Federation, stating, A call, even just to get to know each other, would have made me happy. This means I have to do even more. He also shared his experience playing against Italy with the German youth team, noting it was a bit strange to hear the opponents speaking in Italian.
