Frosinone midfielder Giacomo Calò has returned to prominence following his recent move to Sampdoria, where he has already scored four goals and provided one assist in his first nine Serie A matches. The 29-year-old, known for his vision and ability to create chances, had proven to be a key element in the Ciociaria club's promotion to the top flight, contributing ten goals and fifteen assists during the promotion season. Despite this, he was relegated to Serie B for a long time, with doubts about his potential in Serie A.
The negotiation with Sampdoria was concluded in mid-August, as reported by TuttoSport. The Sampdoria club offered the player a contract that allowed him to realize his dream of playing in Serie A, a goal he had cultivated since he was young. The transition was accompanied by an investment of 300 thousand euros by the managers Doronzo and Castagnini, a figure which today, according to estimates, has risen to twenty times the original value.
Calò is also known for his personality off the pitch. With the nickname “Jack” and a tattoo of Jack Sparrow on his arm, the player shows a creative and passionate side of cinema, sharing this passion with his wife Cloe. The number 14 he wears is a tribute to the birth date of his daughter Clio. His style of play, characterized by precise insertions into the penalty area, has also attracted the attention of coach Roberto Mancini, who could consider him for the national team in view of the next Nations League matches in mid-November.
Frosinone, now in Serie A, continues to dream of participating in the Europa League, with Sampdoria aiming to consolidate their position in the table. The Ciociaria club's next match is against Torino, a match that promises to test the team and give the new midfielder the opportunity to further demonstrate his value. With the support of the fans and the trust of the new club, Calò is ready to continue to surprise and contribute to Sampdoria's success in the top flight.
