Gianluca Mancini, an Italian by birth and footballer by trade, celebrated his 29th birthday on 17 April 2025. He takes to the field as a central defender primarily, doing so for Roma, the Italian club. Mancini stands tall at 6ft 2in (1.9m) and carries a weight of 12st 1lb (77kg), stamping his authority on the pitch. His jersey, emblazoned with the number 23, has become familiar for any fan following Roma's affairs.
As per the data available on Transfermarkt, Mancini's current market value is approximately €15.00m, which rounds to about £13m when converted to the queen's currency, exhibiting his worth in the football landscape.
Mancini first tasted professional football at Perugia, in his home nation. Back in the 2015 - 2016 season, he graced the field in the first team on 11 occasions. In the following season, still at Perugia, Mancini's appearances increased to 13, with a solitary goal to his name.
A successful spell at Perugia paved the way for a move to Atalanta. In his debut season at the club (season 2017 - 2018), Mancini featured 11 times in the first team and found the back of the net once. His performances seemingly improved in the next season, where he made 30 appearances and scored five goals, cementing his place in Atalanta's plans.
However, Roma managed to secure his services in the 2019 - 2020 season. He clocked up 32 appearances for Roma in his debut season, contributing a goal. Over the years, Mancini, still faithful to Roma, has consistently been a part of the regular starting squad. This is marked by 33 appearances in both the 2020 - 2021 and 2021 - 2022 seasons, with goal tallies of four and none respectively. In the subsequent seasons, he featured more frequently, making 35, 36 and 37 appearances in seasons 2022 - 2023, 2023 - 2024 and 2024 - 2025, showcasing his sustained performance and stability. He has scored a total of seven goals in these three seasons. At the time of writing, during the current season (2025 - 2026), Mancini has taken to the turf twice, indicating his trusted role in the Roma setup.
