Born on 19 June 1996, Lorenzo Pellegrini is an accomplished Italian midfielder, specifically demonstrating his abilities in a central attacking position. His current team, Roma, benefit from his 6ft 1in (1.86m) stature and his robust 12st 12lb (82kg) frame. He enjoys the distinction of donning the prestigious number 7 jersey for the Serie A club.
Pellegrini’s current market value, which sits at approximately £7.5m (as per Transfermarkt), is a testament to the value his influence carries on the field.
The exuberant midfielder began his professional career with Roma back in 2005 as a trainee. Pellegrini’s first taste of first team action came in the 2014-2015 season where he made his debut in league play. In the subsequent seasons, he became an established regular, and his consistent performance in the seasons from 2017 to 2025 were demonstrated by his 146 appearances and 33 goals in league matches alone. His current 2025-2026 season has so far seen him play in ten matches, contributing with two goals.
Integrating other senior sides into his career, Pellegrini transferred from Roma to the fellow Serie A side, Sassuolo, in July 2015 for a fee of roughly £880k. During his time at Sassuolo across two seasons, he made 47 appearances, finding the back of the net nine times.
Yearning a return to Roma, Pellegrini made the move back to the capital in July 2017, for what seemed a hefty £8.5m transfer fee. Since his return, he continued to provide influential performances and built on his previously established record. This is evidenced by the accumulated 193 appearances and 37 goals from 2017 season through to his current season in 2025 - 2026.
On the European stage, Pellegrini was instrumental in Roma's Europa League 2023-2024 campaign, scoring twice in his eight starts. In the ongoing 2025-2026 Europa League, he's already punctuated his presence with a goal in his three starts.
