Filippo Distefano (born 28 August 2003) is an Italian professional footballer who plays for Serie B club Frosinone, on loan from Fiorentina.
Early life
Filippo Distefano was born in Camaiore, a town in the Tuscan Province of Lucca, where he started to play football, at the club of Torre del Lago.
Club career
Distefano first joined US Livorno – that was then playing in Serie A under Davide Nicola – where he spent 3 years, before joining the youth sector of ACF Fiorentina. First playing with the Primavera team, he was part of the squads who won the Coppa Italia Primavera in 2020 and 2021.
Having first been called to the first team by Vincenzo Italiano for the 20 November 2021 Serie A game against AC Milan, the young forward eventually made his professional debut for Fiorentina 10 days later, replacing José Callejón in the last minutes of a 3–1 Serie A home win against Sampdoria.
On 9 August 2023, Distefano moved on loan to Serie B club Ternana.
On 26 July 2024, Distefano was loaned by Frosinone.
