Andrea Raggi (Italian pronunciation: [anˈdrɛːa ˈraddʒi]; born 24 June 1984) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a defender. He is a versatile player, being capable of playing both as a centre back and as a right back.
Club career
He started his footballing career with Empoli, where he spent a total of four seasons with the first team.
Palermo
On 28 May 2008, Empoli announced his sale to Palermo for €7 million[1] on a four-year contract.[2]
His failure to break into the first team led Palermo to send Raggi out on loan to a number of teams. In January 2009 he joined Sampdoria, then moving again to spend the whole of the 2009–10 season with Bologna.[3]
Bari loan
In July 2010, he was loaned out for a third consecutive time, joining Bari.[4] He was out-favoured by Giampiero Ventura in mid-season, who originally expected Raggi to play as a centre-back. Instead, Raggi was the starting right-back as Andrea Masiello, originally a right-back, remained as a temporary centre-back which Masiello already played since January 2010. He also played as a left-back to replace Alessandro Parisi against Roma on 12 December. After the closure of the winter transfer window, Parisi and Masiello re-took the full-backs position, after the signing of centre-back Kamil Glik. Raggi blamed Ventura for playing so few games.[5]
The following August, he permanently moved to Bologna, for €200,000.[6][7]
Monaco
In July 2012, Raggi moved to Monaco, and later signed a three-year contract with the team. On 19 April 2017, after defeating Borussia Dortmund 6–3 on aggregate,[8] AS Monaco reached the semi–finals of the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League.[9] Later that year, Raggi won the 2016–17 Ligue 1 title with the club. In September 2017, he signed a two-year contract extension on a €2 million annual salary, which would keep him at the club until June 2019,[10] with AS Monaco confirming Raggi's departure on 28 June 2019[11]
International career
On 24 March 2007, Raggi made his International debut for the Italy U-21 side against the England U21 team in a 3–3 draw at the new Wembley Stadium.[12]
