Federico Croci leads Fiorentina Primavera success

Federico Croci, a 16-year-old talent for Fiorentina, is making a significant impact in the Primavera 1 championship. Following a record-breaking debut with the senior team in August 2026, Croci has demonstrated exceptional form, scoring seven goals in seven matches. In a recent decisive match against Milan, Croci scored a hat-trick before being sent off for removing his shirt during a celebration.

Fiorentina's Primavera squad also secured a 5-0 victory against Septemvri Sofia in the Youth League. In that match, Croci scored the opening goal, while teammate Forte completed a hat-trick to secure the win. Coach Aurelio Andreazzoli praised the team's ability to execute tactical instructions despite limited scouting data on their opponents.
