Early life


Born in Borgo San Lorenzo,[2][3][4][5] in the province of Florence, Mattia Viti already played football at the age of 4, with the club of Ponte a Greve—that would later merge with Rondinella Marzocco—in the Tuscan capital.[3][6] Having moved to the nearby Audace Legnaia, he joined the Empoli academy as a 8 years old, in 2010.[3][5][7]


Club career



Empoli


After a full 2019–20 season with the Primavera, Viti made his professional debut on the 30 September 2020, starting a 2–1 Coppa Italia win against Renate.[8] He played his first Serie B game with Empoli on the 9 April 2021, replacing Nedim Bajrami in a 1–0 away win to Reggina, already proving to be decisive with a late minute goal line clearance.[6][9][10] His side eventually won the championship, making their come-back in Italy's top flight, while the Primavera squad also won their championship.[11]

On 22 September 2021 he made his Serie A debut in a 0–2 away victory against Cagliari, with Aurelio Andreazzoli making him start and finish the game, as the youngster proved to be instrumental in keeping a clean sheet for the Azzurri.[12][13][14]

During the following months—despite having to face the loss of his mother in November 2021[15]—he became a regular with the first team, alternating with Sebastiano Luperto or the veterans Tonelli and Romagnoli. He was a starter for several important Serie A wins, against the likes of Bologna,[16] Sassuolo[17] or Udinese,[18] appearing as one of the Italian championship most promising young defenders.[2][5][13][14][19][20]


Nice


On 3 August 2022, Viti joined Ligue 1 side Nice on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of €13 million.[21][22]


International career


Mattia Viti is a youth international for Italy,[4] having played at under-15,[23] under-16[24] and under-18 levels.[25]

In September 2021, he was selected with the under-20,[26] making his debut during a 1–0 away friendly win against Serbia on the 6 September and becoming a regular starter for the team in November,[27][28][29] before being promoted to the under-21 side,[30] where he was however forced to withdraw due to injury.[31][32]


Style of play


A left-footed center-back with a good physical presence, he is seen as a technically gifted defender, able to launch offensive movements from the back, who doesn't hesitate to take risks and dribble to move froward.[11][13][14][20]

Proactive in putting pressure on the opponent, he has a good discipline—not having received a single card during his first 6 months in Serie A—but still does his far share of defensive tasks, as he was for example among the top 1% of center backs in the top 5 European leagues in therms of blocks, halfway through his first Serie A season.[13]

Very soon compared to former Empoli star Daniele Rugani,[3][4][6] his profile is often associated with the one of Alessandro Bastoni.[13] [14] He cites Sergio Ramos and Paolo Maldini as his main inspirations as a player.[3][6][5]
