About Danilo
Danilo adds to our Italian contingent at the club. He began his footballing journey at the age of 6 and developed his skills through the youth academy of US Alessandria Calcio 1912, a historic club that has competed across Italy’s top leagues: Serie A, B, and C. After his time with Alessandria, Danilo played for several local teams in the province of Alessandria.
In his twenties, Danilo’s playing career faced a setback due to injuries, including a knee ligament injury and a fractured clavicle. After a long recovery period, he’s back on the field, this time in Poland. He discovered Dragoons FC through a colleague who had connections to one of the team’s players.
Danilo likens his playing style to that of Andrea Pirlo – focusing on simplicity and effectiveness, ensuring control and vision in the heart of the game.

At the age of 10, Danilo was invited for a trial by Juventus. Despite passing the trial, circumstances didn’t allow him to join the prestigious club due to the distance and his young age.
