Club career
Varese
Born in Trento, Trentino, Fiamozzi started his playing career at Varese. After Varese failed to win promotion to Serie A, Torino signed Fiamozzi in June 2012 for €370,000 and sold striker Osarimen Ebagua back to Varese for €470,000.[1] He was immediately loaned back to Varese by Torino for the 2012–13 Serie B season. That year, he made his first team debut for Varese, playing in the Coppa Italia, as well as making 14 appearances for the senior team during the season.
In June 2013, Varese bought back Fiamozzi in a co-ownership deal from Torino.[2] He scored his first goal in Serie B during Varese-Pescara, 3–2.[3] On 21 June 2014, Torino's 50% share of Fiamozzi was redeemed by Varese.[4]
International career
Fiamozzi played all 6 games in 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship qualification and elite qualification.[7] He wore the number 9 shirt, playing the first game as a substitute of Gianluca Caprari. He then became a starting player in round 2 and 3, before substituting Elio De Silvestro, Massimiliano Busellato and Mattia Valoti in the Elite round respectively.
