Alessandro Bassoli

Alessandro Bassoli (born 19 June 1990) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a defender for club Picerno.

He made his Serie A debut for Bologna on 16 May 2010, in a game against Cagliari, when he came on as a substitute in the 78th minute for Adaílton.

He is the twin brother of Giacomo Bassoli.

Chievo and controversy In June 2011, a few days before the closure of the 2010–11 financial year of Bologna and A.C. ChievoVerona, Bassoli was exchanged with Cesare Rickler. Both clubs retained 50% registration rights (a co-ownership). They were valued €3 million, thus half of the rights worth €1.5 million. The press was criticized that it was purely a financial trick. The sale gave Bologna a player selling profit of €2,971,242, and Chievo had to book another €600,000 amortization cost in 2013–14 season.

On 25 July 2014 Bassoli was signed by Cremonese. On 6 July 2015 Bassoli re-joined South Tyrol again.
