Antonio Di Natale

Who is Antonio Di Natale?

Antonio Di Natale is an Italian footballer who plays for Italian Serie A club Udinese.

A versatile striker with a lethal eye for goal, Di Natale can play anywhere in the front line, as a lone striker, or out wide in an attacking trident. He is notable for his technical skills and for his ability to score and create goals. Di Natale earned the prestigious award of being the Serie A Capocannoniere — Serie A's highest goalscorer — for the 2009–10 and 2010–11 seasons.

Despite previously announcing he would retire from professional football at the end of the 2013–2014 Serie A season, Di Natale confirmed on 30 May 2014 that he would not retire and would continue to play on into the 2014–2015 season.

Unusually for a striker, he has enjoyed his most prolific seasons in front of goal well after the age of thirty.
