Giovanni Pasquale (born 5 January 1982 in Venaria Reale, Piedmont) is an Italian footballer who plays as a full-back for Serie A side Udinese.

Biography

Inter

Pasquale started his career at Internazionale. Due to Francesco Coco's performance, he gained a place in first team. In January 2003, he signed a new contract for the club along with Nicola Beati and Obafemi Martins.[1]

After the signing of Giuseppe Favalli, he was out-favored by coach Roberto Mancini and sent on loan to Siena[2] and Parma.[3]

Livorno

Following Francesco Coco failed to make a permanent move and returned to Internazionale. Livorno signed Pasquale in a co-ownership deal,[4] for €750,000.[5] The co-ownership deal turned to permanent a year later, for another €400,000. (made a financial loss of €350,000 for the discount)[5] He was the regular for the Serie A struggler, but after the team relegated again in June 2008, he was sold to Udinese which qualified to 2008–09 UEFA Cup.

Udinese

Pasquale played regularly in 2008–09 season, Udinese used different squad for Serie A and UEFA Cup. Although Udinese failed to qualified again for UEFA Cup, the team signed Pasquale permanently from by-then Serie B promotion playoffs winner Livorno in June 2009. But he became Aleksandar Luković's backup in left back position in 2009–10 season, and played a few matches as left midfielder. But in January the coach changed the tactic which Luković became centre-back and Pasquale became left-back again, since against Napoli on 7 February.

In 2010–11 season he became a backup of Pablo Armero who played as a wing-back in a new 3–5–2 formation.

2011–12

After Udinese sold numbers of players, the coach changed the tactic to 4–1–4–1 or 4–4–1–1 formation against Arsenal in 2011–12 UEFA Champions League playoffs round, with Armero as left midfielder and Neuton as new left-back. Pasquale played twice as substitute. However, he was excluded from the 25-men squad to 2011–12 UEFA Europa League.

Due to exclusion from the European match, he started the 2011–12 Serie A first round, with Neuton as backup and Armero ailing[6] in Udinese's landmark 3–5–2 formation, as the coach utilised the squad to competitive in domestic and international competitions.

On 1 February 2012 Pasquale was re-instated to the Europa squad. He played the first knock-out round as left winger in the 3–5–1–1 formation, with Armero moved to the attacking midfielder/second forward or play-maker role.

In October 2012 he signed a new contract which will last until 30 June 2016, adding 3 more years to his previous contract.[7]

Torino

In August 2013 he was loaned to Torino after original signing Andrea Dossena failed his medical with the club.[8] His debut in granata came as a final substitute against Milan on 14 September 2013, conceding a penalty in stoppage time (2–2).[9] Originally a backup player, he was inserted into the starting lineup after left-back Danilo D'Ambrosio was frozen out of the squad following a contract dispute.[10][11] However, his uninspiring performances soon led to him being dropped in favour of Salvatore Masiello,[12] who was injured warming up before the derby in February 2014 with Juventus.[13] In the same month, Pasquale was also injured, prematurely ending his season with just 13 appearances.[14][15]
