Matteo Cancellieri, born on 12 February 2002 (age 24), is an Italian left winger with Lazio, where he wears squad number 22. His current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His senior career has been built in Serie A, with his most productive league season coming at Empoli in 2023-2024. He scored four goals in 36 appearances there, a useful return for a wide player still trying to turn promise into reliable output.
Cancellieri is now back in the Lazio picture. In 2026-2027, he has made five Serie A appearances and scored once, which at least keeps him involved rather than drifting around the edges. He was linked with a move to Celtic in July 2026.
At this stage, Cancellieri is an established Italian top-flight professional rather than a finished article. His career so far is one of Serie A experience, a productive spell at Empoli, and a continuing role at Lazio.
