Uganda Cranes Elio Capradossi heading to fomer Serie A side Pescara

Elio Capradossi, a defender for the Uganda Cranes, will be joining Pescara Calcio in the Italian Serie C.
Capradossi left Lecco FC at the end of the previous season when his contract ended, making him a free agent as of right now.

Pescara Calcio and Capradossi are reportedly in good talks about a potential deal.

As the new 2024–25 season gets underway this weekend, Pescara Calcio, who want to be promoted back to Serie B, have made acquiring a new center back their top priority.

Recall that Capradossi was previously connected to Saudi Arabian second division as well as Romanian powerhouses CFR Cluj and Rapid Bucharest.

In June, Capradossi made his FIFA World Cup Qualifiers debut for the Uganda Cranes against Botswana and Algeria.

28 years ago, an Italian father and a Congolese mother welcomed him into the world in Uganda.

Capradossi played for Cagliari, SPAL, Spezia, Bari, and the senior AS Roma team after progressing through the youth ranks.

Before deciding to join Uganda, Capradossi competed for Italy’s U16, U17, U18, U19, U20, and U21 teams.

Pescara played in seven separate seasons of the Serie A before moving on to play in the Serie C, the third division.
