Narciso Soldan

One day, while attending a local club match at Vittorio Veneto, he became fascinated by the goalkeeper's role on the playing field.

[1] The following year (1947–48), Narciso Soldan was playing in Italy's third division: Serie C - North League: Group H.[2] After a fantastic season, Vittorio Veneto arrived in 3rd place and just missed promotion to the "New" Serie C.[1] The 1948–49 season didn't go as well for Vittorio Veneto as the previous one had.

The club was now playing in the new, recently named Promozione Interregionale - 4th Division: Group E. The team struggled for long periods throughout the season but managed to finish in a respectable 10th position.

After having a great season defending his goal, coach Enrico Colombari decided to try his luck by taking young Soldan for trials in Milan under the watchful eyes of Giulio Cappelli, then Manager of F.C.

Despite competition from Lorenzo Buffon, he managed to win two league titles during his time with the club, and also reached the 1958 European Cup Final, only to be defeated 3–2 by Real Madrid in extra-time.
