Daniele Vantaggiato (born 10 October 1984) is an Italian footballer who currently plays for Livorno as a striker.
Vantaggiato started his career at Bari. He made his Serie B debut on 26 January 2003, against Triestina.

After Jeda left for Cagliari in January 2008, Vantaggiato became the team leading scorer. At the end of season Rimini won the blind bidding to have the full ownership for an undisclosed fee.
But in January 2009, his 13 goals scored in mid-season made Parma F.C. signed him (€1.9M) along with team-mate Francesco Lunardini (€1M) in co-ownership deal, in exchange for Davide Matteini (50% for €1M) and Daniele Paponi on loan. Vantaggiato and Lunardini also cost Parma an additional €130,000 and €49,000 as other fee respectively. Parma won promotion back to Serie A as 2008–09 Serie B runner-up.
