Club career

[edit]

Cantore helped Fiammamonza gain promotion to Serie B in the 2016–17 season.[citation needed]

In August 2017, she moved to Juventus.[1] On 12 March 2018, Cantore scored her first goal for Juventus in a 2–0 away win against Verona.[2] She scored four goals in 19 matches in the 2017–18 season,[3] also winning the 2017–18 league title.[4] On 9 June 2018, she suffered a knee injury which prevented her to play in the 2018 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship.[5][6] The injury also affected the following season in which she only played one match.[7]

In July 2019, she moved to Hellas Verona on loan,[8] where she scored three goals in 14 appearances.[3] In July 2020, she moved on loan to Florentia,[9] scoring nine goals in 22 appearances.[3] On 9 July 2021, she was loaned to Sassuolo.[10] She fractured her tibula on 18 February 2022, ending her season prematurely.[11]
