Salvatore D'Elia (born 10 February 1989) is an Italian footballer who plays as a left-back for Chieri in the Italian Serie D.
Juventus
D'Elia started his career working his way through the Juventus youth ranks since 1998[citation needed], before he made his way to the Primavera youth squad in 2007.[2] After being promoted from the youth sector of the Turin-based club, D'Elia was sent out on loan the following season.
Loan Stints
He never managed a senior team debut with Juventus, but after graduating the youth team in July 2009, he was loaned out to third-tier club, A.S. Figline, along with teammates, Marco Duravia, Nicola Cosentini, and Alessandro D'Antoni. He made 18 appearances in his first season with the club, and returned to Juventus on 2 July 2010. D'Elia was then sent out again on loan to newly promoted Serie B outfit Portogruaro, ahead of the 2010–11 Serie B campaign, where he went on to make just 12 league appearances. On 30 June 2011, D'Elia returned to Juventus, and spent the entire 2011–12 Serie A campaign training and playing with the youth sector. Prior to the 2012–13 Serie A season, however, he was farmed out on loan to Lega Pro Prima Divisione outfit Venice.
Vicenza
On 31 January 2013, he was officially sold to Vicenza Calcio (for €400,000) along with Nicolò Corticchia (for €600,000), as part of the deal that saw Michele Cavion transfer to Juventus for €1 million. D'Elia remained on loan at Venezia until 30 June 2013.[3] D'Elia signed a 3+1⁄2-year contract with Vicenza.[4]
D'Elia was assigned the number 3 shirt in the 2014–15 season. However, in the 2015–16 season, the club assigned a new shirt number (number 6) to D'Elia,[5] as the no.3 shirt was retired for former Vicenza footballer and coach, late Giulio Savoini. On 8 June 2015, D'Elia signed a new three-year contract.[6]
On 22 December 2016, D'Elia signed a new contract with Vicenza, which would last until 30 June 2020.[7]
Ascoli
On 9 August 2018 he joined Serie B club Ascoli on a 3-year contract.[8]
Frosinone
On 14 January 2020, he signed with Serie B club Frosinone.[9]
