Mattia Felici (born 17 April 2001) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Serie A club Cagliari.
Club career
[edit]Born in Rome, Felici started his playing career at local amateur team GSD Nuova Tor Tre Teste, before joining Lecce's youth sector in 2018, initially on loan.[1][2]
He made his professional debut for Lecce on 23 March 2019, as a 70th-minute substitute for Panagiotis Tachtsidis in a 7–0 Serie B win over Ascoli.[2][3] He was signed permanently by Lecce by the end of the campaign, and subsequently loaned to Serie D club Palermo for the 2019–20 season.[4] Here, the winger established himself as a regular starter, helping the team win promotion back to Serie C.[2]
After returning to Lecce in July 2020, Felici failed to break into the first team during the 2020–21 Serie B campaign, as well as the first half of the following season, due to a series of injuries.[2] On 5 January 2022, he was loaned back to Palermo, now in Serie C, on a two-year term, with an option to buy.[5] However, at the end of the campaign, on 21 July 2022 Felici terminated both his loan spell and his contract with Lecce by mutual consent.[6]
A couple days later, he was permanently signed by fellow Serie C side Triestina on a three-year deal.[2] Although the team got involved in a relegation battle since the start of the 2022–23 season, Felici established himself as a regular starter and one of the club's most notable performers.[7] However, on 30 November 2022, he was sent-off for violent conduct against referee Dario Madonia in a 2–0 league loss against Piacenza, and subsequently received a four-match ban.[8][9][10] On 22 April 2023, he scored one of the goals in a 2–1 league win over Pergolettese, which allowed Triestina to reach the play-outs;[11][12] the team would eventually defeat Sangiuliano City to stay in the third tier.[13]
On 30 July 2023, Felici joined newly-promoted Serie B side Feralpisalò on a season-long loan, with an option-to-buy that could turn into an obligation, once certain targets were met.[14] He scored four goals and five assists in 36 league games, as the team eventually got relegated to Serie C.[15]
On 10 July 2024, Felici joined Serie A side Cagliari, signing a three-year contract, with a club option for two more seasons.[16][17] The deal reportedly commanded a fee in the region of €2 million,[18] as well as the loan of Nicolò Cavuoti to Feralpisalò.[19][20]
Style of play
[edit]Felici is primarily a left winger, although he can play in several different attacking positions, or even as a left wing-back.[2]
