Club career

After leaving Benevento, agent Alessio Sundas remarked that Piscitelli is a goalkeeper who had shown huge experience contributing to the rise of Benevento. While Piscitelli was on trial at Vis Pesaro[2] where he played for the team in friendly matches,[3] Sundas engaged foreign teams for his transfer.[4][5]

On 5 December 2018, he signed a contract until the end of the 2018–19 season with Serie B club Carpi.[6]

On 28 June 2019, Piscitelli joined Romanian club Dinamo București.[7] He left Dinamo after only one season and signed a contract with Portuguese club C.D. Nacional.[8]

International career

Piscitelli played for the Italy U-20 three times, in September 2012 against Turkey,[1][nb 1] March 2013 against Poland[10] and June 2013 also against Poland.[1]

Footnotes
  1. As Turkey U21 for 2013 edition was eliminated on 14 August 2012, the Turkey national under-20 football team (born 1992 and 1993 team) of 2012–13 season immediately became U21 team, thus the age limit of the match was born 1992 on both sides but Italy considered it was U20 match but Turkey considered it was a U21 match.[9]
