Mattia Minesso (born 30 March 1990) is an Italian professionalfootballer who plays as aforward forSerie C Group A clubArzignano.
Born inCittadella,Veneto, Minesso started his career atVicenza. Minesso made his Serie B debut on 10 May 2008, replacing wingerDavide Matteini in the second half. In that match, Vicenza wonFrosinone 2–1. Minesso also played for Vicenza'sPrimavera under-20 team from 2007 to 2010 after promoted from its Allievi Nazionali under-17 team. Minesso failed to play any game for the first team in2009–10 Serie B but also only played 4 times for Primavera that season.[1]
On 24 June 2010, five days before the closure of 2009–10 financial year of "A.C. Chievo-Verona s.r.l." and "Vicenza Calcio S.p.A.", Minesso joinedSerie A clubChievo, whileAmedeo Benedetti joined the opposite side. Both players were "valued" for €2 million (thus no cash involved).[2] Co-currently both clubs bought back 50% registration rights for €1M as part ofco-ownership deal. As youth product usually did not have a value as "intangible asset" (because it was based on historical cost, such as acquire cost, agent fee and training cost), both clubs had a selling profit (but partially offset byVAT and created amortize cost in next few years) On 30 June 2010, Chievo had a positiveshareholder equity of €687,180, thus no need to recapitalisation (The club did re-capitalised for €250,000 in 2010–11 financial year).[2] However, Minesso was part of the "intangible asset" of Chievo which "worth" €2 million at that time, plusDaniele Rosania "worth" €1 million. Vicenza also swapped players withAscoli andCesena before the closure of the financial year.
Minesso did not remain inVerona, another city of Veneto. Instead Minesso immediately returned to the city ofVicenza (likesGiacomo Tulli who already "sold" to Cesena) but Minesso only made 5 league appearances in2010–11 Serie B, as number 9 of the team.
On 7 January 2011, Minesso joinedLega Pro Prima Divisione clubAndria, re-joining team-mateMattia Evangelisti. (Italian third division) Minesso played 14 times in2010–11 Lega Pro Prima Divisione, but only 8 starts.
In June 2011 both Benedetti and Minesso returned to their mother clubs for the same price (50% rights for €1 million). Again, Chievo had a positive equity of €679,516 and player asset of €20,156,304,[2] but composited with players such as Benedetti (€2M) andAlessandro Bassoli (€3 million, recently joined fromBologna) On Vicenza side, the club also swappedTonelli with Cesena before the closure of 2010–11 financial year.
As Minesso had a "value" of €2 million in accounting, Vicenza failed to find a new club to buy him (or it may have had to write-down the inflated value). Instead Minesso's loan was renewed on 16 July 2011[3]
After Vicenza relegated, Minesso returned to the club and took part in pre-season. He was confirmed as part of the squad despite Vicenza was re-admitted to2012–13 Serie B on 23 August after the expel ofLecce. He wore no.15 shirt.[4]
On 25 January 2013, Minesso left for another Veneto and Serie B clubCittadella, whichTommaso Bellazzini moved to opposite direction.[5][6] On 1 July 2013 Cittadella signed Minesso outright.
On 6 July 2016, he was signed byBassano Virtus for an undisclosed fee.[7]
In June 2018 Minesso was signed bySerie B clubPadova as afree agent.[8][9]
On 14 January 2019, he signed withPisa.[10]
On 5 October 2020, he joinedPerugia on loan with a conditional obligation to buy.[11]
On 9 July 2021, he joinedModena on loan with a conditional obligation to buy.[12] He made his debut on 29 August, the first matchday of the domestic season, in a 0–0 draw againstGrosseto, coming on as a substitute forRoberto Ogunseye in the second half.[13] He scored his first goal for the club on 19 September in a 4–0 away win overFermana.[14] He scored again the following week as Modena lost 2–1 toVirtus Entella at home,[15] to bring his goal tally to 2 in 3 games.[16]
