Emanuele Valeri

Emanuele Valeri is an Italian defender who operates primarily as a left-back and can also play higher on the left flank. Born in Rome on 7 December 1998, he developed in the capital before beginning his senior career in the lower levels of Italian football. Valeri joined Cremonese in September 2020 and became an important contributor during the club’s 2021–22 campaign, which ended with promotion to Serie A. His time at Cremonese established him as an energetic wide player who combined defensive work with forward runs and deliveries from the flank. After a spell with Frosinone in early 2024, Valeri moved to Parma on a free transfer in June that year. At Parma, he continues to provide defensive cover while supporting attacks from the left, reflecting the positional versatility associated with his role.
