Matteo Mancosu: Nobody knew his Name

Related Topics: Joey Saputo, Marco Donadel, Serie D, Italy

A few months ago I wrote an article on Marco Donadel detailing how Joey Saputo and Co. should continue their path of going to Italy and bringing in more down on their luck Italian footballers that have something to prove. Then on July 7th the Impact announced the loan of Matteo Mancosu. Now to be honest when I first heard of this signing the first thought that came to mind was who? So I looked into his past stats and on paper it’s nothing to be excited about. Mancosu started his career with Aletico Calcio in serie D and continued playing in Italy’s lowest divisions with multiple different teams before making the jump to Seire B with Trapani in 2013.
