My Take
What strikes me about Alessandro Buongiorno is the quiet loyalty baked into his story. Born in Turin in 1999, he came up through the city's football culture and turned into the kind of centre-back coaches build a defense around. His 2024 move to Napoli felt like a statement that he'd earned a stage worthy of his consistency, and the Italy call-ups confirm it. I like defenders who do the unglamorous work, and Buongiorno reads like exactly that type. He's still young, so I'm genuinely curious how far his ceiling goes once he's the undisputed leader at the back.
