Alberto Masi

Alberto Masi (born 2 September 1992) is an Italian footballer who plays as a defender for Serie C Group A club Atalanta U23.

[4] Sampdoria gifted the Piedmont club half of the registration rights for a fee of €500 each,[5] in exchange for a chance to develop the players.

On 23 June 2012 Lega Serie B announced that Pro Vercelli had bidded a higher price to buy Masi outright from Sampdoria,[9] for €421,000 fee.

[11][12] On 22 August 2012 Juventus bought the player outright, buying the remaining half of his registration rights from Pro Vercelli by selling the co-ownership of Elio De Silvestro plus and undisclosed cash sum.

After spending the first half of the 2012–13 Serie B season in the Pro Vercelli starting line-up, making 14 league appearances, Masi was surprisingly called back to Turin in order to be re-located during the 2013 January transfer window.

[19][21] In June 2015 Russini also returned to Ternana for €150,000 fee, matching the €1.5 million price tag of 50% registration rights of Masi.

[22] However, on 31 August, he joined fellow Serie B club Spezia on a temporary deal, with an option to buy the player's contract.
