[edit] Club career
[edit] Chievo
A product of European giants A.C. Milan's youth system, Sammarco never played a game for the side, serving consecutive loans: from 2002–04 in Serie C1, and from 2004–07 with first division side A.C. ChievoVerona (the first two in joint ownership, exchanged with Martino Olivetti[1]).
[edit] Sampdoria
On 22 June 2007, U.C. Sampdoria announced Sammarco, in another co-ownership deal with Milan, for €1.5 million. (That season Milan also bought back Luca Antonini)[2][3] In Sampdoria, he broke through, playing almost every league game in a team that achieved UEFA Cup qualification.
In June 2008, Sampdoria gained full ownership of Sammarco for another €2.5 million, made his valued increased to €4 million (made Milan register a financial income of €1million as the half retained had increased from €1.5 million to €2.5M) [4] and in his first season he played 30 games and scored 5 goals. On 25 August 2009 he was loaned to Udinese for one season.
On returning to Sampdoria for the beginning of the 2010–11 season, he did not appear in any games, before being loaned to Cesena on 30 December 2010 for the rest of the season.[5]
He scored a goal in the first two games of 2011–12 Coppa Italia for Doria, however on 24 August he returned to Chievo in exchanged with Simone Bentivoglio.
[edit] National team
Sammarco was first capped for the Italy national under-21 football team in August 2005, against France, and was part of the final squad in the 2006 European Championship, making three appearances as a starter.
