Over the past week, he's made his debut and scored his first Inter goal. Today, he turns 20 years old!


Francesco Pio Esposito's 20th birthday is a special one. Today, the striker, who was born in Castellammare di Stabia, blows out 20 candles on his cake, after a very eventful week with the First Team.

In the past seven days, Pio has had some memorable moments at the FIFA Club World Cup in the USA. At the start of the second half against Urawa Red Diamonds, he came on for his brother Sebastiano to make his First-Team debut, eleven years after joining the Club's youth system.

Three days later, also at Lumen Field in Seattle, at the age of 19 years and 363 days, he made his first start for the Club. But, there's more: he also scored his first Inter goal, helping Chivu's men to finish top of Group E. Two dreams come true in the space of seven days, just before his 20th birthday.

“Il primo gol dopo l'esordio in una manciata di giorni è stato incredibile, sono orgoglioso di aver esaudito questo sogno. 11 anni fa vestivo questa maglia da bambino e volevo proprio realizzarlo. ”
