Valerio Di Cesare

Di Cesare career began with Lazio's youth system. During the summer of 2001, he accepted an offer from Chelsea, initially joining the Blues' reserve team. However, he failed to break into the first team, and left England in January 2004 without making a single appearance, joining Avellino in a temporary deal. Di Cesare suffered a serious knee injury. Before moving to Avellino, he also went to Brentford and Como for a trial. Di Cesare then went on to play in Serie B with AlbinoLeffe, Catanzaro and Mantova, joining the Virgiliani in January 2006.

Mantova

Di Cesare only played twice for the Veneto side in 2005–06 Serie B. In the next two seasons, he played 46 times out of a possible 84 Serie B games.

In June 2008, Di Cesare moved to Vicenza along with Simone Calori for €1 million and €500,000 respectively. However, concurrently, Mantova had to sign Mattia Marchesetti and Riccardo Fissore also for €1 million and €500,000, thus making the deal a pure player swap without involvement of cash. All four players signed a three-year contract. Di Cesare only briefly played again in the first season with his new club (13 times in Serie B); Di Cesare played 33 games in 2009–10 Serie B.

Torino

In the final year of his contract, Vicenza decided to sell him to Torino for €250,000 in a three-year contract (€750,000 short with the original price or €83,333 with the residual value of the contract), while Calori (who never played for the club) was released…
