Career

Andrea Luci, who prefers to play the position of central midfielder, began his active career at Fiorentina . After he had stayed there until 2002 in the youth department, he went to the Italian record champions Juventus Turin after the club went bankrupt . In the 2003/04 season he won the Italian Cup with the Primavera team in two games against Inter Milan , the midfielder was a regular in both games. In the same year he also won the Coppa Carnevale , known as Torneo di Viareggio, with the team . The following year he won the Torneo di Viareggio again with the team. He worked with Domenico Criscito , Paolo De Ceglie and Claudio Marchisio, among others .

After he was not taken into account for the first team of Juventus Turin, Luci was awarded for the 2005/06 season to the then third division club ASD Torres Calcio . In the course of the season he made it into the starting eleven. On the 20th matchday he scored his first goal for Torres Calcio in the away game at Manfredonia Calcio , the Sassari- based team won 3-2 in Manfredonia . At the end of the season he finished third with the club in the Girone B in the third-class C1 series . As a result, Luci took part with Torres Calcio in the play-offs for promotion to Serie B. In two games, however, the team was defeated by US Grosseto with 0: 1 each and thus missed the possible promotion. After the loan period expired, the midfielder returned to Turin for the time being.

When the record champions, who were relegated to Serie B due to the uncovered manipulation scandal , Luci was not taken into account for the Juventus squad a league level lower, as numerous national players were still under contract with the Turin team. In order to gain regular match practice, he switched to league rivals Pescara Calcio on loan in the summer of 2006 . At the Biancoazzurri , Luci was a permanent staff and completed 32 of 42 league games in the 2006/07 season . His only goal was scored on matchday four in the away game at AC Cesena , when he scored in the opposing goal in a 3-3 draw for Pescara. At the end of the season, the club from Abruzzo occupied the last place in the table in the second-highest division with 25 points and was relegated to Serie C1.

After that, the midfielder returned to Juventus Turin, but was given up to the second division Ascoli Calcio shortly afterwards . At the club, which had previously been relegated from the top division, Luci won a regular place under head coach Ivo Iaconi and was also one of the top performers among his successors. After he reached eighth and 16th places with the team in the first two years, he secured the league again in the 2009/10 season by reaching the ninth place. In the summer of 2010, the player from Tuscany signed a contract with AS Livorno , which had previously been relegated from Serie A.
