societies

Graziano Pellè comes from the youth department of US Lecce . In the 2003/04 season he made the leap into the professional squad. On January 11, 2004, he made his Serie A debut at home against FC Bologna . Overall, he came on two missions during that season. In January 2005 Pellè was loaned to Catania Calcio for the second half of the season, in which he completed 15 games. When he was unable to assert himself at Lecce again next year, Graziano Pellè was loaned out for the second time in winter 2006. For FC Crotone he played 17 times in Serie B and scored his first professional goal. Five more goals should follow. At the beginning of the 2006/07 season , his parent club decided to go to the next loan shop and Pellè switched to AC Cesena on loan . There he developed into a regular player. He scored ten goals in 38 games.

In summer 2007 the final farewell came from Lecce . Pellè signed a five-year contract with the Dutch club AZ Alkmaar and became Dutch champions under Louis van Gaal in the 2008/09 season . For him it was the first title win of his career.

In July 2011 Pellè moved to FC Parma and rose to Serie A at the end of the season . Then the club loaned him to the second division Sampdoria Genoa from January to June 2012 and from September 2012 to Feyenoord Rotterdam in the Netherlands . In January 2013 Feyenoord signed him permanently. In July 2014 Pellè moved to Southampton FC in the Premier League and signed a three-year contract.

In July 2016 he moved to the Chinese first division club Shandong Luneng Taishan , where he is coached by Felix Magath . On July 16, 2016 (17th matchday) he made his debut in a 0-0 away game against Liaoning Hongyun .

National team

Pellè was nominated for the junior soccer world championship of the Italian U-20 selection and took part in the 2007 U-21 soccer championship .

On October 13, 2014, Pellè made his national team debut under Antonio Conte at the age of 29 . He scored the winning goal at 1-0 in the European Championship qualifier against Malta .

Pellè was inducted into the Italian squad for the 2016 European Championship in France and played 4 of the 5 games in the tournament. He scored the 2-0 for his team in stoppage time both against Belgium in the opening game and in the round of 16 against Spain . In the quarter-finals he failed with Italy on penalties against Germany . Pellè also missed and was criticized by La Gazzetta dello Sport for his behavior before the penalty was taken. Pellè signaled to the German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer that he would lift the ball in, in fact he shot it next to the goal.

In the World Cup qualifier against Spain on October 6, 2016, Pellè was replaced in the 60th minute and then refused to give coach Gian Piero Ventura the mandatory handshake. In response, Ventura left the striker for the next game against Macedonia . Pellè has not been called up to the Italian squad since then, but signaled that he is open to a return.
