Dominic Vavassori, the young talent who caught Silvio Inzaghi's attention, continues to surprise with his ability on the pitch and his rapid growth within Palermo. The midfielder, born in Bergamo, was chosen by the former striker for his ability to "steal an eye" and transform the most complicated matches into scoring opportunities. In fact, Inzaghi preferred Vavassori to other proposals, seeing him as a future emulator of one of the greatest strikers in Italian football.
Inzaghi's choice proved to be the right one from Dominic's first appearances. Il giocatore, che è stato promosso dalla propria Under‑23 in Serie C, ha rapidamente imparato le regole del gioco offensivo grazie anche al supporto di un “specialista” come SuperPippo, che lo aiuta a dosare le energie e a sfruttare al meglio le sue potenzialità. Vavassori, dal canto suo, dimostra di avere un forte legame con l’allenatore piacentino e di voler sfruttare l’opportunità di diventare un emulo di uno dei più grandi attaccanti del calcio italiano.
The young man has already shown a special "feeling" with the coach and has proven to be a key element for Palermo. With six goals in six games, Vavassori is already capable of making a difference on the pitch and contributing to the club's growth. His future seems bright, especially to the joy of his father Luciano, of Brazilian origins, and his mother Kamilla, Polish by birth. The youngest sister, Isabel, is an example for the family and for the world of football.
Palermo also had a positive performance on the night of the "Barbera", where Brighenti's goal, at the start of the match, risked ruining the party organized for the 126th birthday of the Sicilian club. However, Vicenza did not take into account the incredible desire to score from the prodigious baby from Bergamo, who completed the comeback started by Johnsen, the increasingly decisive Norwegian in a team that never takes anything for granted and has extended a positive streak that has already attracted applause. With 26 points, Pippo equaled the playoff era record after 10 days, reaching Sassuolo (2012-13) and Juventus (2006-07).
The future of Vavassori looks promising, but the path is still long. The club and fans look forward to seeing the young player continue to grow and become a true emulator of Inzaghi. Palermo has shown that it has a bright future thanks to the presence of this young talent and his ability to transform the most complicated matches into scoring opportunities.
