Club career

Born in Rovigo and raised in Lendinara,[1] Ghirardello started playing football at the local grassroots club GS Duomo, before joining Padova in 2015.[1][2] Here, he spent most of his youth career, except for two loan spells, respectively, at S.P.A.L. and Juventus.[1][2][3]

Having come back to Padova in the summer of 2022, Ghirardello was subsequently promoted to the first team by the club's new manager, Bruno Caneo.[4] He subsequently made his professional debut on 1 August 2022, at 16 years and 10 months, coming in as a substitute for Simone Russini at the 67th minute of a 3-0 defeat against Bari, a match that was part of the preliminary round of the Coppa Italia.[5] On 3 September, he made his Serie C debut, replacing Fabio Ceravolo in the second half of the league match against Pro Vercelli, which ended in a 1-0 loss.[6]

On 31 July 2023, Ghirardello officially joined Serie A club Genoa, being initially assigned to the under-19 squad.[7]

Style of play

Ghirardello mainly acts as a winger, and has been regarded mainly for his pace, his physical strength and his technical abilities with both feet, which allow him to find numerous chances for goals or assists.[2][3]
