Daniele Ghilardi, born on 6 January 2003 (age 23), is an Italian centre-back with Roma, where he wears squad number 87. His current market value is around £7m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive senior league campaign so far came at Sampdoria in 2023-24, when he made 37 appearances and scored twice. For a young central defender, that was a proper run of football rather than the usual polite development-plan talk.
At Roma in 2026-27, Ghilardi has made six Serie A appearances and one in the Champions League, taking him to 11 appearances for the club in all competitions. He also has four UEFA Under-21 qualifying appearances on his record.
Ghilardi’s career is still at the building stage: a strong season at Sampdoria, a move into Roma’s first-team picture, and enough senior football to suggest a player being brought along with some purpose.
