Udinese defender Destiny Udogie, who will join Tottenham next year, is the most prolific U20 player in Italy in 2022 with seven goals scored.
The U21 Italy international signed with Antonio Conte’s side last year but has remained on loan at Udinese until the end of the season.
He has scored seven goals in league games in 2022, adding two assists to his tally. As reported by Transfermarkt, he is the most prolific U20 player in Italy’s professional leagues this year.
The second one is Nicholas Bonfanti, born in March 2002, who is contracted with Serie B side Modena. He is a product of Inter‘s academy and joined the Gialloblu in 2021.
Giovanni Fabbian, 19, also played in Inter’s academy and has scored five goals in 2022 with Reggina, coached by Italy’s 2006 World Cup winner Filippo Inzaghi.
Juventus‘ Nicolò Cudrig and Samuel Iling-Junior have scored four and three goals, respectively, with the Bianconeri’s NextGen team playing in Italy’s third division.
Iling, a product of Chelsea academy, has recently extended his contract with the Serie A giants after making his senior debut under Max Allegri.
