Pavoletti
Leonardo Pavoletti was born in Livorno November 26, 1988,
He has chosen the jersey number “32”, contradicting all those who thought that took the “9”.
His father, Paolo, is a tennis teacher and Leonardo also played the game as a child. But once he started to play football, he never looked back.
The Livorno-born player blossomed later than most, He was still at amateur side Armando Picchi. He made his Serie A debut with Sassuolo in a 7-0 defeat at Internazionale on 14 September 2014 and scored his first top-flight goal in a 2-1 loss at Palermo three months later, when he was already 26.
Pavoletti moved to Genoa in January 2015 and quickly became a crowd favourite with six goals in ten games in his first half-season at the club. He added 14 in 25 appearances in 2015/16 and has three in nine this campaign.
His idol was Cristiano Lucarelli, another striker from Livorno, but Genoa fans have compared him with Diego Milito. Pavoletti said, however: “Milito was ‘The Prince’ whereas I’m the workman of goals.” Milito scored two for Inter in the 2010 UEFA Champions League final at the Santiago Bernabéu; Pavoletti could make his competition debut at the same venue should he appear against Real Madrid in the round of 16 next month.
The characteristics of the new stricker, are those of the classic center-forward, the major presence, but with good movement.

The score capacity of Livorno-born striker has increased over the years. Passing from goal every 3 games at one goal every less two games, in recent years in Rossoblu. Index that the player, despite his no longer young age, it is in big climb. As is its market value, shown in the image beside.
We can only repeat the words of President Aurelio De Laurentiis, in His canonical Tweet.
