Simone Scuffet (Italian pronunciation: [siˈmoːne skufˈfɛt]; born 31 May 1996) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Serie A club Cagliari.

Club career

[edit]

Udinese

[edit]

An Udinese youth product, Scuffet made his first team debut on 1 February 2014 at the age of 17 in a Serie A match against Bologna, as a replacement for injured Željko Brkić.[2] After a string of impressive performances, he was subsequently promoted as first choice keeper, relegating Brkić on the bench.[3]

On 9 June 2014, following a successful debut season, Scuffet signed a new five-year deal with the club.[4] He failed to get the same level of game time during the 2014–15 season with Orestis Karnezis preferred as the first-choice goalkeeper at Udinese.[5] On 8 December 2014, he Scuffet was named at the #1 spot in the goalkeepers category as part of Outside of the Boot's 100 Best Young Players to Watch in 2015 feature.[6] On 16 December 2014, he was named at the #1 spot as FutbolSapiens's 10 Best Young Goalkeepers of the Year feature.[7]

Various loans

[edit]

On 6 August 2015, Scuffet was sent out on loan to Serie B side Como.[8] Although he was able to obtain more playing time at Como, he endured a negative season with the club, as he conceded 52 goals, while Como finished in last place in the league and were relegated to Lega Pro at the end of the 2015–16 Serie B season.[5][9]

On 16 January 2019, Scuffet joined Turkish side Kasımpaşa on loan until 30 June.[10]

On 19 August 2019, Scuffet joined Serie B club Spezia on loan until 30 June 2020 with an option to buy.[11] He was the starting goalkeeper throughout the season, which ended with the club achieving promotion to Serie A.[12]

Return to Udinese

[edit]
Scuffet with Udinese in 2019.

In July 2020, Scuffet returned to Udinese. On 28 October, he returned between the sticks for the club, playing as a starter in the Italian Cup match against Vicenza, which finished in a 3–1 win. On 2 May 2021, due to a suspension of starting goalkeeper Juan Musso, he returned to Serie A action for the 2–1 defeat against Juventus in which he conceded two goals to Cristiano Ronaldo.[13]

APOEL

[edit]

On 30 August 2021, Scuffet signed a two-year contract with Cypriot First Division club APOEL.[14][15]

CFR Cluj

[edit]

On 17 July 2022, Scuffet joined Romanian Liga I champions CFR Cluj on a free transfer.[16]

International career

[edit]

Scuffet has represented Italy U-17 team at both the 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship – where they reached the final[17] – and the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup, where they were eliminated in the round of 16 by Mexico.[18]

In March and in April 2014 he was called up by Italy senior coach Cesare Prandelli to join two training camps ahead of the 2014 World Cup.[19]

He made his first appearance for the Italy U-21 team on 12 August 2015, in a friendly match against Hungary. In June 2017, he was included in the Italy under-21 squad for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship by manager Luigi Di Biagio.[20]

Style of play

[edit]

Scuffet has earned praise in the media for his reflexes, confidence, consistency, calm composure, leadership qualities, and precocious performances as a youngster, which have earned him comparisons with former Italy national football team goalkeeper and 2006 World Cup winner Gianluigi Buffon, who also made his Serie A debut as a teenager.[18][21][22][23] In 2014 Don Balón listed him as one of the top 100 young players in the world.[24] His ability to come out off his line and his confidence when handling crosses and high balls have been cited as areas for improvement by pundits, however.[5]
