Club career

Madonna and Daniel Bombardieri joined AlbinoLeffe in a joint-ownership bid for €100,000 each.[1] AlbinoLeffe got full ownership from Atalanta by blind auction between club in June 2006, for €110,000 and €11,000 respectively.[1] He played 81 games for AlbinoLeffe at Serie B, plus 3 more appearances at 2007-08 promotion playoffs.

In summer 2009 he was re-signed by Atalanta in joint-ownership bid for €550,000 (exchanged with Michael Cia and Dario Bergamelli for the same price)[2] but after a poor half season, on 1 February 2010 loaned to Vicenza.[3]

After this loan, Madonna returned to Atalanta, and played only 1 match in a whole season. In June 2011 Atalanta acquired Madonna outright for a peppercorn of €1,500[4] and sold Bergamelli, Cia and Karamoko Cissé for €500 each.[4] After this unsuccessful season with the Dea, he was moved to Spezia Calcio in July 2011, initially in temporary deal.[5] At the end of season he was signed by co-ownership deal for €250,000.[6] The co-ownership was renewed in 2013[7] and again in 2014.[8]

On 11 October 2019 he joined Serie C club Giana Erminio until the end of the season.[9]

Personal life

He is the son of Armando Madonna, head coach of AlbinoLeffe, Piacenza and Livorno.
