Vittorio Continella (born 31 December 2002) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for I liga club Odra Opole.[1]

Club career[edit]

Born in Turin, Continella played in the youth sectors of Juventus,[2][3] Perugia[4] and Spezia,[5][6] before joining Torino in the summer of 2020.[3][6]

In August 2021, he joined Serie D side Casale on a permanent deal.[7][8] Throughout the 2021–22 season, he made a total amount of 35 senior appearances and scored two goals, as the club finished third in their group.[2][3]

On 19 July 2022, Continella officially joined Cypriot side AEL Limassol on a free transfer, signing a two-year contract, with an option for two more seasons.[2][9][10] He subsequently made his debut for the club on 28 August 2022, starting in a 2–1 league defeat to Aris Limassol.[11] On 30 April 2023, he scored his first professional goal in a 1–1 league draw against Olympiakos Nicosia.[12]

On 5 January 2024, Continella terminated his contract with AEL by mutual consent.[13] On 20 January, he signed a six-month deal with Polish club Odra Opole, with an extension option until the end of 2025.[14][15]

Style of play[edit]

Continella is a midfielder who can play in every position of a three-man midfield, but mainly acts in the box-to-box role; he has been mainly regarded for his passing range, as well as his positioning.[3]
