Angelica Soffia
Angelica Soffia is an Italian footballer who plays as a defender and midfielder. She represents Italy on senior international level.
Did You Know?
She was born in Prato, Italy.
She grew up playing football with boys, even though her mother was initially not convinced, before eventually becoming her biggest fan.
Football wasn't her only childhood passion—she also practiced classical ballet, horseback riding, roller skating, tennis and swimming while growing up.
Horseback riding became a special passion because it helped strengthen the bond with her father.
She originally played as a striker with the boys, then as a midfielder, before eventually discovering her best position as a full-back almost by chance during an Italy youth match.
Her calm personality on and off the pitch is something she credits to her family, especially her father, whom she says she closely resembles.
She made her UEFA Women's Champions League debut at just 16 years old in Kazakhstan.
She studies at university while balancing her professional football career.
