Club career

Juventus

Lanzafame, born in Turin to a Catanese father and a Piedmontese mother,[1] had been part of the Juventus youth side, competing in competitions such as Trofeo Giacinto Facchetti, but made his senior team debut for Juve during their 2006–07 season in Serie B. Italy Under-21 boss Pierluigi Casiraghi called him up for the 2008 Toulon Tournament and listed him as a reserve for the Olympics that summer.

A.S. Bari

Ahead of the 2007-08 Serie A season, Juventus loaned Lanzafame to Serie B side, A.S. Bari, who was the coached by former Juventus captain, and ironically, current Juventus coach, Antonio Conte. Lanzafame endured a highly successful loan spell in which he made 37 league appearances, scoring 10 goals. In April 2008, coach Antonio Conte compared him to Cristiano Ronaldo, stating that he has the possibility and potential to reach similar levels in his football and quoting "Lanzafame has improved tactically” to La Gazzetta dello Sport. “He is explosive, he sniffs the goal, and imposes his speed outside the area. If he improves and learns he can become like Cristiano Ronaldo."

U.S. Città di Palermo

On July 1, 2008 Palermo announced to have finalised the signing of Lanzafame from Juventus in a co-ownership deal, as part of the deal that saw Carvalho Amauri, move to Juventus, while Antonio Nocerino also move to Palermo .[2] After a disappointing time with Palermo during the first half of the 2008–09 Serie A season, where Lanzafame saw little playing time and no first team action, co-owners, Juventus, ensured that a loan deal was executed,[citation needed] also wanting their youth product to remain in Serie A,[citation needed] but on December 26, 2008 he moved from Palermo to Bari on loan for the remainder of the season.[3] Lanzafame underwent a second successful spell with A.S. Bari, making 18 league appearances and scoring 2 goals. Following his second return from Bari, Lanzafame returned to Palermo, only to be loaned out to Serie A side, F.C. Parma. In his first full season of Serie A football, Lanzafame strongly impressed, scoring 7 goals in 27 league matches. He also scored against his parent club in 3–2 win for Parma over Juventus on May 9, 2010.

Return to Juventus

On June 25, 2010 Palermo and Juventus agreed to extend the co-ownership deal for another year, with the Sicilian club loaning out the player to the bianconeri for the 2010–11 season.[4] Lanzafame was expected to be a part of the building project of the new Juventus management, however, after just three league appearances in 5 months for Juventus, he was loaned to Brescia Calcio for the remainder of the 2010–11 season.[5] Lanzafame made 13 appearances with Brescia, but failed to score. At the end of the season, he returned to Palermo. Following his second comeback to Palermo on June 30, 2011, his co-ownership was solved in favor of the rosanero.

Calcio Catania

On August 10, 2011, Palermo confirmed to have sold Lanzafame to Calcio Catania on a co-ownership basis, as part of the deal that saw Matías Silvestre move in the opposite direction.[6] Lanzafame was officially presented on August 12, 2011, alongside Mario Paglialunga and David Suazo.
