Daniele Portanova Biography

Daniele Portanova is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on December 17, 1978 in Rome, Lazio, Italy. His impressive form throughout in the previous season was the reason for the southern heavyweights S.S.C. Napoli to offer a transfer to sign the player. He played 31 games in his debut season with the club, after finishing 14th Serie B.

Daniele’s consistent success within the Second Division of Italy eventually led to his transfer towards Serie A where he was taken over at the hands of AC Siena. He played in 26 games and even scored four goals during the 2004-05 season, when Siena finished 14th far from being relegated. In the following campaign, Daniele continued as a regular at Siena and played 32 times in the 15th place finish of the squad. Then, in August of 2009 Portanova transferred into Bologna away from AC Siena after 162 appearances and 10 goals for Siena over the course of five years. Portanova’s departure was deeply felt by fans who grew to love the player throughout his time with the club.

Portanova returned to Genoa on 30 January 2013, right on transfer deadline day, for an undisclosed fee. The Genovese club brought the player in with an attempt to turn around their season as they were hovering just above relegation. In the end, Portanova and company did just enough as Genoa finished six points clear of relegation. In the off season of 2013, Daniele was appointed as captain of his new club. He made 22 appearances that season, struggling towards the end of the campaign due to injuries and loss of form and was released by the Grifone at the end of the 2013–14 season.

Portanova returned to action in round 17 as he faced former side Napoli. In a wonderful return to football, Daniele scored an 89th-minute winner as his struggling side managed an unlikely 3–2 win over the third placed Neapolitans.

Portanova was immediately a key player in the Messina team which was promoted during the 2000-01 season to Serie B. He was a part of 18 games in the 2001-02 season, but was absent for 15 games in mid-season because of an injury. The 2002-03 campaign was the most productive of Portanova’s career to this point and the defender made 34 games and scoring at least four times for his team.

Avellino 1912 on loan for the 1999-2000 season. After a bad experience at Avellino and he made only nine appearances, Genoa sold the young defensive player to third division club A.C.R. Messina.
