Andrea Masiello (born 5 February 1986) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Serie B club Südtirol.
He is perhaps best known for match-fixing in the Derby of Puglia, whilst playing for Bari, scoring an own goal to guarantee Lecce survival in Serie A.
A graduate of Juventus' youth system, he made his Serie A debut for Juve, in a home defeat Inter, on 20 April 2005.
[2] After failing to make an appearance in the first half of the 2006 season, Juventus sold 50% of its ownership of Masiello and Konko to Genoa on 25 January 2007, (which were previously owned by Siena and Juventus, after Genoa and Siena) worth €1.25 million (Masiello) and €1 million (Konko) respectively,[3] for part of the deal of the permanent transfer of Domenico Criscito.
Genoa and Siena were failed to make an agreement for the two players before the deadline, thus they had to submit a bid to Lega Calcio.
As Bari performed poorly in both attack and defence, the team finished bottom and were relegated to Serie B.
Over the next few years Masiello cemented himself as a starting centre-back for Atalanta under Gian Piero Gasperini, leading them to a historic 3rd-place finish in the 2018–19 season, earning them qualification to the 2019–2020 Champions League Group Stage.
