Giovanni Fanello (Pizzo, 21 February 1939) is an Italian former footballer who played as a forward.[1]

Career

Fanello began playing football with local side Polisportiva Pizzo. He turned professional with U.S. Catanzaro, and was the leading goalscorer of Serie C as he helped the club gain promotion to Serie B during the 1958–59 season. After playing for Italy at the 1960 Summer Olympics,[2] Fanello signed with Serie A side A.C. Milan. However, his opportunities with the first team were limited, and he was loaned to U.S. Alessandria. He would appear for several other Italian clubs, including S.S.C. Napoli, and scored 17 goals in 80 Serie A appearances and 71 goals in 218 Serie B appearances.[3]
