Andrea Colpani (born 11 May 1999) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Serie B club Monza, on loan from Atalanta, and the Italy national under-21 team. Due to his similarities to Javier Pastore, Colpani is sometimes nicknamed "El Flaco".[2]

Club career[]

Colpani is a product of the Atalanta Youth Sector, and started playing for their under-19 squad in the 2016–17 season.[3]

In the 2017–18 and 2018–19, he was called up to the senior squad on several occasions, including the 2019 Coppa Italia Final, but did not make any appearances.

He started the game and played the first 63 minutes.[5] Colpani played 34 league games for Trapani, as well as two games in Coppa Italia.[6]

Loan to Monza[]

On 22 August 2020, Colpani was sent on a two-year loan to newly-promoted Serie B side Monza, with an option and conditional obligation to purchase.[6] He scored his first goal on 16 March 2021, as a substitute in a 2–0 home win over Reggiana.[7] On 1 November 2021, Colpani scored his first goal of the 2021–22 season, helping Monza beat Alessandria 1–0.[8]
