Nicolò Casale, born in Negrar on February 14, 1998, is an Italian professional footballer who plays as defender for Lazio.
He almost came to Lazio in the winter of 2022 but the purchase was postponed to the summer.
He debuted in professional football in 2017 in Serie B with Perugia before playing for Prato and Sud Tirol in Serie C.
In 2019-20 he signed with Venezia in Serie B and the year after he was at Empoli. His debut in Serie A came in 2021-22 with Verona where he played 37 games before joining Lazio.
He played really well in 2022-23 and Lazio had 21 clean sheets in Serie A. But 2023-24 was not so good.
On August 30, 2024, after playing in both the first two games of the season, he was loaned out to Bologna with option to buy. It has been claimed that the false rumor that he was betting on Serie A games had a deep psychological effect on him. It is hope that he can recharge his enthusiasm at Bologna and come back to his previous levels.
