Jacopo Desogus (born 1 October 2002) is an Italian professional footballer who plays for Serie C Group B club Gubbio on loan from Cagliari as a winger.
Born in Cagliari and raised in the near town of Gergei, Desogus joined Cagliari's academy in 2012.[1][2] After coming through the youth ranks of the club, he made his professional debut on 15 December 2021, coming in a substitute for Charalampos Lykogiannis in a 3–1 Coppa Italia win over Cittadella.[3][4] He subsequently signed his first professional contract with the club on 13 January 2022, penning a four-year deal.[2][5]
On 13 August 2022, he made his league debut for Cagliari, starting the Serie B match against Como, which ended in a 1-1 draw.[6]
On 1 September 2022, Desogus joined Serie C club Pescara on a season-long loan, as part of a deal that saw Davide Veroli go in the opposite direction.[7] On 11 December, he scored his first professional goal in a 1-2 league win over Monopoli.[8]
Desogus has been a youth international for Italy, having played for the under-20 national team.[10]
Desogus is a right-footed winger, who primarily plays on the left side, but can also operate in several other attacking positions. A quick dribbler, he's also good both technically and athletically, which allows him to be prolific both as a goalscorer and as an assist-man.[1][11][12]
