Daniele Ghilardi

Daniele Ghilardi of Roma was born in Lucca, Italy on 6 January 2003 (age 23).

Daniele Ghilardi, born on 6 January 2003 (age 23), is an Italian central defender with Roma, wearing squad number 87. His current market value is around £7m, according to Transfermarkt.

His strongest league season so far came at Sampdoria in 2023-24, when he made 37 appearances and scored twice. For a centre-half still building his senior career, that was a useful run of games rather than a decorative line on the CV.

By 2025-26 he remained a regular first-team presence at Roma. He has made 23 Serie A appearances without scoring, along with one in the Coppa Italia and four in the Europa League, taking him to 32 appearances in all competitions for the club.

Ghilardi’s career is still at the building stage: a productive spell at Sampdoria, followed by a meaningful place in Roma’s squad. He is not yet a finished article, but he is playing often enough for that development to matter.

Daniele Ghilardi made 23 Serie A appearances for Roma in 2025-26, with nine starts and 14 outings from the bench. For a central defender, that split points to a squad role rather than a settled starting place, while zero goals and one yellow card underline a low-event profile across his league minutes.

Ghilardi’s senior path has been built around loans and gradual exposure. After joining Hellas Verona in 2022, he spent 2023-24 on loan at Sampdoria, returned to Verona, then moved to Roma on loan in August 2025. At 23, the trajectory still reads as development rather than consolidation.

The transfer record is dominated by temporary moves. Hellas Verona sent Ghilardi to Sampdoria on loan in 2023, brought him back in 2024, then loaned him to Roma in 2025. The Roma move was a clear step up in level, but the loan structure suggests he still had to prove he could hold a permanent role at that standard.
