Club career

A youth product of Roma, Calafiori signed his first contract with them on 16 June 2018.[1] Calafiori suffered a near career-ending injury to his knee on 2 October 2018.[2] Calafiori made his professional debut with Roma, as well as his Serie A debut, in a 3–1 away win over Juventus on 1 August 2020; during the match, he won a penalty, which was successfully converted by teammate Diego Perotti, and he also scored a goal with a strike from distance following a corner, which was disallowed however, as the ball had previously gone out of play.[3][4]
