Lorenzo Colombo (born 8 March 2002) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie A club Monza, on loan from AC Milan.[2]
Club career[edit]
AC Milan[edit]
Born in Vimercate, close to Milan, Colombo is a product of the youth academy of AC Milan. His goal tally in the club's youth teams led to him making his debut for the Primavera (under-19) side at the age of 15. Due to minor injuries, his time in the Primavera was cut short.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Milan first team's lack of striking options meant they were unable to cope with the busy schedule after football resumed, and Colombo was promoted to the senior side. He made his first-team debut, aged 18, on 12 June 2020, replacing Lucas Paquetá after 82 minutes in a 0−0 draw at home to Juventus in the Coppa Italia.[3] He made his Serie A debut in a 5−1 home win against Bologna on 18 July 2020.[4][5]
On 5 September 2020, he scored his first senior goal in a 4–1 win against Monza in a friendly match.[6] On 24 September 2020, he scored his first goal in official competition, during a Europa League match against Norwegian club FK Bodø/Glimt.[7]
Loan to Cremonese[edit]
On 26 January 2021, Colombo joined Serie B club Cremonese on a six-month loan, until the end of the season.[8]
Loan to SPAL[edit]
On 31 July 2021, Colombo was sent to Serie B club SPAL on a one-year loan.[9]
Loan to Lecce[edit]
On 7 July 2022, Colombo joined recently promoted Serie A club Lecce on a one-year loan, with an option to be signed permanently.[10]
Loan to Monza[edit]
On 1 September 2023, Colombo moved on a one-year loan to Monza.[11]
International career[edit]
Colombo played for the Italy U17 and the Italy U19 side.[12]
He made his debut with the Italy U21 on 30 March 2021, playing as a substitute during the group stage match of the 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship won 4–0 against Slovenia in Maribor.[citation needed]
