Coming through Bologna's youth academy, Masina made his senior appearance with the club in 2012, and transferred to Watford in 2018. He was also loaned to Giacomense twice.
Masina was born in Morocco, and moved to Italy at a young age. He initially represented Italy internationally at under-21 level, before opting to play for the Morocco national team since 2021.
Club career
Masina was born in Khouribga, Morocco, but lost his mother as just an infant. He successively moved to Italy together with his brother and father, settling down in Emilia-Romagna, and was later assigned to a number of foster families due to his father's problems with alcoholism. He was eventually adopted by one of them, from which he took his last name.[3]
At the age of 11, he was scouted and signed by Bologna. After a successful loan in Giacomense, he returned to Bologna in 2013 and made his senior debut for the Rossoblu in a 2–1 away win over Latina on 12 October 2014.[4] He helped the club obtain Serie A promotion, later making his debut in the top division, and scoring his first goal in Serie A in an injury time victory at Carpi.[5]
On 2 July 2018, Masina signed for English side Watford on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[6]
On 18 July 2022, Masina signed a three-year contract with Italian club Udinese.[7]
International career
In November 2015 Luigi Di Biagio called Masina to represent Italy U21 team after obtaining FIFA transfer.[8] He made his debut with the Italy U21 side on 17 November 2015, in a Euro 2017 qualification match against Lithuania.[5]
In March 2021, Masina was called up to represent Morocco in African Cup of Nations qualifier matches against Mauritania and Burundi.[9] He made his debut on 26 March 2021 against Mauritania.[10]
Style of play
Masina is known in particular for his technique, physicality and energy as a left-back.[5]
