Born in Cagliari,[2] Tresoldi later settled with his family in the fellow Italian city of Gubbio, where he started playing both football and tennis before focusing on the former sport.[3][4]
After being offered trials at several high-profile Italian clubs, in 2017 Tresoldi moved with his family to Hanover, Germany, where he proceeded to join the youth sector of local team Hannover 96.[3][4][5] Having impressed during his stints for the under-17 and under-19 ranks,[5] on 5 January 2022 the striker signed his first professional contract with the club, with the deal set to be officially activated on the player's eighteenth birthday.[6][7]
After featuring for Hannover's reserve team towards the end of the 2021–22 season, Tresoldi made his professional debut for the club's first team in the 2. Bundesliga on 15 July 2022, against 1. FC Kaiserslautern, coming on as a substitute for Maximilian Beier in the 88th minute; the match eventually ended in a 1–2 away loss for his side.[3][8]
Thanks to his dual citizenship, Tresoldi can choose to represent either Italy or Germany in international matches.[4]
On 25 October 2022, he made his debut for the German under-19 national team in a 0–1 friendly match loss against Spain.[9]
Tresoldi is the son of former professional footballer Emanuele Tresoldi [it].[4][10]
He is fluent in four languages: Italian, German, English and Spanish.[5]
