Wladimiro Falcone

Loans On 25 July 2014, Falcone was signed by Lega Pro club Como in a temporary deal. The club won promotion to Serie B in 2015 as the promotion playoffs winner.

On 20 July 2015, he was signed by another third-level club, Savona, in a temporary deal.

On 9 July 2016, he left Samp once again for Livorno in another temporary deal. The club was relegated from Serie B to Lega Pro in 2016. On 31 January 2017, he returned to Sampdoria.

In July 2017, he joined Bassano on loan. But in January 2018, he left for Gavorrano. Later he went to Lucchese on loan.

Return and loan to Cosenza In 2019 he came back to Sampdoria, and he made his debut for the club on 29 July 2020 in a 1–4 loss against Milan.

On 29 August 2020, he extended his contract for Sampdoria until 2024; on the same day, he went to Cosenza on a season loan.

During the whole 2020-21 season, Falcone established himself as the first-choice goalkeeper of the Silani and repeatedly stole the scene thanks to his performances, although he couldn't help Cosenza avoid relegation, as a 9-point gap between them and Ascoli allowed the latter team to stay in the second tier without playing a relegation play-out.

Loan to Lecce On 17 July 2022, Falcone joined recently-promoted to Serie A side Lecce on a season-long loan. That season, he played all available minutes in the league, helping Lecce avoid relegation to Serie B.

Lecce On 27 July 2023, Lecce announced the permanent signing of Falcone on a five-year contract, for a reported fee of €4 million.

International career In 2014, Falcone was a second-choice keeper for Italy's U-19 side during the qualifiers for the UEFA European Under-19 Championship, behind Pierluigi Gollini.

On 17 March 2023, Falcone received his first official call-up to the senior Italy national team for two UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying matches against England and Malta.
