Alessandro Sorrentino (born 3 April 2002) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Serie B club Padova, on loan from Monza.

Early career

Sorrentino started playing for Lanciano at six years old as an outfield player; he became a goalkeeper following a friendly match where he was forced to replace the team's missing goalkeeper.[1] Despite Lanciano gaining promotion to the Serie B, they declared bankruptcy in 2016; Sorrentino left the club on a free transfer, and joined Renato Curi Angolana.[1] After one season, he moved to Pescara's youth sector in 2017.[1]

Pescara

Sorrentino was first integrated to the senior team during the 2019–20 Serie B season, during which he also played as the first-choice goalkeeper in the Primavera (under-19) team, that was newly promoted to the Campionato Primavera 1.[2]

He made his senior debut for Pescara on 15 September 2021, starting a 2–0 Coppa Serie C home win against Grosseto.[3][4][5] A month later, Sorrentino made his Serie C debut.[3][6] He signed his first professional contract in March 2022, effectively replacing Raffaele Di Gennaro as the starting goalkeeper.[7] Sorrentino was a key player for Pescara, playing 29 league games during the 2021–22 season.[8]

Monza

On 13 July 2022, Sorrentino joined newly promoted Serie A side Monza on a five-year deal,[9] as part of a swap deal involving Daniele Sommariva and Luca Lombardi moving the other way.[10]

On 26 August 2024, Sorrentino was loaned by Frosinone in Serie B.[11]

On 19 August 2025, Sorrentino moved on loan to Padova, with an option to buy.[12]

International career

Having already represented Italy internationally at under-20 level since March 2022,[13] Sorrentino was called by Italy national team coach Roberto Mancini in May 2022 to a training camp with Italy's most promising youth players as the only player from Serie C.[14][15]

In June 2022, after having been called up to the U20 team again,[16][17] Sorrentino was first selected by Paolo Nicolato to the under-21 team.[18]
