Lorenzo De Silvestri

Lorenzo De Silvestri of Bologna was born in Rome, Italy on 23 May 1988 (age 37).

Lorenzo De Silvestri, born on the 23rd of May in 1988, hails from Italy. He's a stalwart defender for Bologna, primarily operating as a right-back. Standing tall at 6ft 1in (1.86m) and weighing in at 13st 3lb (84kg), he is a formidable presence on the field. He dons the number 29 jersey for his club.

According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is around £600,000.

De Silvestri kick-started his footballing journey as a trainee at Lazio in Serie A back in July 2005. He made his first-team debut in the 2006-2007 season at Lazio, with 2 league appearances. His playtime increased over the next two seasons, with 24 and 21 league appearances in 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 seasons respectively.

In August 2009, he moved from Lazio to Fiorentina, a transfer which cost around £5.3m. He showed steady performance during his time at Fiorentina with regular first-team appearances from 2009 to 2012.

In a turn of events in July 2012, De Silvestri was loaned from Fiorentina to Sampdoria in Serie B. His tenure at Sampdoria was marked by increased contributions in terms of goals scored, in addition to regular first-team appearances from 2012 to 2016.

De Silvestri moved once again in August 2016, transferring from Sampdoria to Torino in Serie A for a fee around £3.1m. His time at Torino was marked by consistent appearances, and a penchant for contributing goals as a defender from 2016 to 2020.

In September 2020, De Silvestri made a switch from Torino to Bologna in Serie A. Since then, up until the current 2025-2026 season, he has made consistent first team appearances and contributed with goals consistently as well.
