Emanuele Giaccherini is an Italian footballer who plays as a winger for English Premier League club Sunderland and the Italy national football team. He began his career at Cesena, and after loans at three lower-league clubs, helped them to consecutive promotions to reach Serie A. He then left to Juventus, where he won the league title in both of his seasons, before joining Sunderland on a four-year deal in 2013. Giaccherini has earned over 20 caps for the Italy national football team, helping the nation to the final of UEFA Euro 2012 and third place at the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup. Giaccherini is a consistent, energetic, quick, hard-working and versatile player. He is capable of aiding his team defensively, but also offensively, due to his ability to make attacking runs, contributing with goals, and assists, due to his reliable distribution. He was initially deployed as a winger on either flank early in his career, due to his technical dribbling ability, agility, acceleration, and balance, which aid him in beating players in one on one situations.
