Club career

Delvecchio was born in

Ascoli on a free transfer.[4][5]

On 10 May 2007, Delvecchio and Ascoli mutually agreed to terminate his contract following a combination of a knee injury and Ascoli's relegation to

Torino three days earlier. He scored twice in ten appearances for the club.[4][5]

After one season of inactivity, Delvecchio decided to abandon professional football altogether and accept an offer from Eccellenza Lazio side Pescatori Ostia, where he scored 34 goals throughout the season.[4][5]

International career

Delvecchio was a member of the Italy under-21 teams that won the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in 1994 and 1996; in total, he scored 6 goals for the under-21 side in 24 appearances between 1992 and 1996. He also represented Italy at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, making three appearances and scoring once.[6][7][8]

He made his international for the

Euro 2000 final, although Italy later conceded an equaliser in the final minute of stoppage time, and were defeated in extra-time from a golden goal.[10] Delvecchio travelled to Korea with the 23-man Italian 2002 World Cup squad, but did not play during the tournament under manager Giovanni Trapattoni.[11][12] After the World Cup, he scored a goal in a 2–0 friendly win over Northern Ireland,[13] and on 18 February 2004, he made his final appearance for Italy against the Czech Republic, missing out on Trapattoni's Euro 2004 squad. He was not selected for the country's FIFA World Cup-winning squad in 2006. Delvecchio scored 3 goals in 14 starts for the Italy senior team, scoring 4 goals in 22 total appearances for Italy between 1998 and 2006.[8]

Style of play

Delvecchio was a versatile, powerful, determined, and hard-working

assists.[14][15][16][17][18]

Personal life and media

Ballando con le Stelle 2012, where he placed second alongside professional dancer Sara Di Vaira, with whom he later began a relationship.[19]
