Leonardo Spinazzola (born 25 March 1993) is an Italian footballer who plays for Perugia, on loan from Juventus, as a right midfielder.

Club career

Born in Foligno, Spinazzola started his career at Siena's youth setup. In 2010 he joined Juventus in a temporary deal, being assigned to the Primavera squad. In June 2012 Juventus signed half of the registration rights for €400,000.

On 5 July 2012 Spinazzola and Filippo Boniperti were loaned to Serie B side Empoli in a season-long loan.[1] 1 September he played his first match as a professional, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–2 away draw against Novara.[2]

Spinazzola scored his first professional goal on the 15th, but in a 2–4 loss at Livorno.[3] After appearing in only seven matches, his loan spell was cut short and he moved to Virtus Lanciano also in a temporary deal in January 2013.[4]

Spinazzola only appeared in three matches with Virtus, all from the bench. On 10 August 2013 he was again loaned, this time to his first club Siena;[5] he appeared regularly with the latter, contributing with 24 matches and one goal for the latter, which narrowly missed out play-offs.

In June 2014 the co-ownership agreement between Siena and Juventus was renewed again However, after the bankruptcy of Siena in July, Juventus acquired the remain 50% registration rights of Spinazzola from Siena for free.

On 11 August 2014 Spinazzola joined Serie A side Atalanta also in a loan deal.[6] On the 23rd he made his debut for the club, scoring the last of a 2–0 home win against Pisa.

Spinazzola made his debut in the Italian top flight on 31 August, replacing Marcelo Estigarribia in the 82nd minute of a 0–0 home draw against Verona.[7]
