A young goalkeeper skilled between the posts: 2006 Andrea Greco. Andrea Greco, born in 2006, is a goalkeeper. His passion for football was passed down to him from his father, who encouraged him to watch Rende Calcio matches from an early age. He fell more and more in love with the sport. It was on the Lorenzon pitch that he donned his gloves and parried balls at the age of five. His first coaches were Ernesto Salerno and Monica Fusaro in Rende. He played there for four years, then moved to Popilbianco, Pro Cosenza with the Elite youth team, and VE Rende, led by coach Giovanni Carbone, finishing third in the league and reaching the quarterfinals of the Coppa Calabria. In November, he signed for San Fili. His goalkeeping coaches, Franco Viola and Mattia De Angelis, contributed greatly to his development. He has excellent explosive power, excellent reflexes, and is alert to low runs. He's quick. He manages defense well, like a good No. 1. But Andrea isn't just a good shot-stopper. He's also good with his feet. In fact, during the shoot-outs of his debut season at Popilbianco, he scored numerous goals. So definitely a versatile and complete player.
A young goalkeeper skilled between the posts. A footballer with a noble soul.
Among his most exciting and important football memories is the friendly match between the VE Rende Under 19 team and Messina (who play in Serie C). At the end of the match, after making some good saves, he was praised by Messina goalkeeper Erman Fumagalli and DS Domenico Roma, who expressed a positive opinion on him, making that day of football a day A special one for him. His dream is to join a professional club. Andrea is a decent guy and an excellent teammate. He's well-mannered and determined. Ultimately, football is a noble sport, only for those who are already noble at heart. His is an important role, because the goalkeeper is considered a beacon for all the other players. He carries it out with a great sense of responsibility. He supports Napoli, and his favorite player is Pepe Reina. Regarding his current club, Andrea tells us: “I was welcomed well, I am currently the goalkeeper of the Juniors and according to of the first team. In Mr. Rossiello's Junior championship we reached the play-offs, while with the first team we hope to achieve safety."
“A hero doesn't need a cape. All he needs is a pair of gloves and a chance to fly.”
Good luck Andrea
