“Modena is also on Felici’s trail: he is the revelation player of Serie B”, headlines the Resto del Carlino.
The new Modena of Andrea Catellani and Pierpaolo Bisoli does not hide its ambitions and demonstrates it with its interest in Mattia Felici, one of the revelations of the last cadet championship. The 23-year-old offensive winger of Feralpisalò, despite the relegation of the “Leoni del Garda” is a target of numerous teams, both in Serie A and Serie B. In the top division, Parma, Cagliari, Empoli, Venezia and Lecce have come forward; among the cadets, in addition to Modena, also Cremonese, Sassuolo and Frosinone. But for his registration, Feralpisalò is asking a figure close to two million euros. Originally from Rome, where he was born on 17 April 2001, Felici as a boy played for Lazio and then for Roma, of which he is a fan, before joining Tor Tre Teste, a neighborhood team in the capital whose honorary president is Fabio Liverani, a former midfielder with three appearances for the national team and then coach also in the top division. In 2018 he moved to Lecce, where he played in the youth team before making his debut in Serie B on March 23, 2019 against Ascoli, becoming the first player of the new millennium to wear the Salento jersey. The following summer he went on loan to Palermo, in Serie D, where he contributed with 25 appearances and 4 goals to the promotion to Serie C. He then returned to Lecce, but in January 2022 he was again at Palermo for another promotion, this time from Serie C to Serie B: for him 11 appearances and one goal. In the summer of 2022 he was released from Lecce to join Triestina, also in Serie C, where he played 27 games scoring 4 goals, one against Novara after 14 seconds: it is the fastest goal in the history of the Julian club. At the beginning of last season he went on a two-year loan to Feralpisalò, newly promoted to Serie B, who bought him in January and extended his contract until 2026. He finished the championship with 36 appearances, 30 as a starter and 6 as a substitute, scoring 4 goals, all with his right foot, and 5 assists. […].
