Alessandro Golinucci (born 10 October 1994 in San Marino) is a Sammarinese footballer who plays for Virtus and the San Marino national football team.[1]

Club career

Golinucci joined Virtus in 2021, where he won his first title by achieving the 2022–23 Coppa Titano.[2]

On 27 March 2015, Golinucci made his international debut for San Marino in a UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying match against Slovenia.[3] He captained his national team for the first time on 19 June 2023 in a UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying match against Finland.[4]

On 17 October 2023, Golinucci scored his first international goal in a 2–1 defeat against Denmark in the same Euro 2024 qualification campaign, to be his country's first goal in a European qualifying match in four years, and first competitive goal since 2021.[5]

On 18 November 2024, during a UEFA Nations League D game against Liechtenstein, he scored his second goal with his country, becoming the sixth Sammarinese to score more than one goal, and at 30 years and 1 months San Marino’s oldest goalscorer ever in UEFA Nations League.[6]
