Davide Zugaro De Matteis, known as Davide Zugaro (born 16 April 2000) is an Italian footballer who plays as a left-back for Serie D club Bitonto.
He played most of his youth career with Pescara. In January 2018, his rights were purchased by Inter, who loaned him back to Pescara.[1]
On 9 August 2019, Zugaro joined Serie C club Olbia on a season-long loan.[2] Five months later, on 22 January 2020, he made his professional Serie C in a game against Siena. He substituted Mattia Pitzalis in the 74th minute.[3] Four days later he made his second appearances, replacing Francesco Pisano in the 76th minute of a 3–3 away draw against Alessandria.[4] On 30 June, Zugaro made his third appearances for the club, again as a substitute, replacing Antonio Candela in the 75th minute of a 1–1 away draw against Giana Erminio in the second leg of the play-out where Olbia wins 2–1 on aggregate to avoid relegation in Serie D.[5] Zugaro ended his season-long loan to Olbia with only 3 appearances, all as a substitute, he remained an unused substitute for other 26 matches.[6]
On 23 September 2020, Zugaro moved to Serie C side Giana Erminio on a season-long loan.[7] Two weeks later he made his debut for the club as a substitute replacing Vincent De Maria in the 46th minute of a 2–1 away defeat against Novara.[8] One week later, on 12 October, he played his first entire match for Giana Erminio, a 1–0 away win over AlbinoLeffe.[9] He became Giano Erminio's first-choice early in the season. On 25 November he was sent-off with a double yellow card in the 59th minute of a 2–0 home win over Piacenza.[10] On 17 March 2021, Zugaro scored his first professional goal in the 42nd minute of a 4–3 home win over Lucchese.[11] Zugaro ended his season-long loan to Giana Erminio with 30 appearances, including 21 of them as a starter.
