Manolo Gabbiadini (Italian pronunciation: [maˈnɔːlo ɡabbjaˈdiːni], born 26 November 1991), is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Southampton.

He began his professional career with Atalanta, where he made his Serie A debut on 14 March 2010. The following season he was sold in co-ownership to Cittadella, where he spent one season before returning to Bergamo. In August 2012, Juventus acquired 50% of his player rights in a new co-ownership agreement, although he was immediately loaned to Bologna. In July 2013, he was once again sold in co-ownership to Sampdoria, where he scored a personal best of ten goals in the Italian top flight. In July 2015, he was sold to Napoli, before moving to Southampton during the 2017 January transfer window.

He is a former Italy under-20 and under-21 international. Gabbiadini has represented the senior Italian national team since 2012.

Born in the province of Bergamo, he grew up in the youth teams of Bolgare and then Atalanta, who loaned him to Palazzolo and Montichiari, before returning to Bergamo. He made his Serie A debut for the club on 14 March 2010 in a league match against Parma, coming on as a 79th-minute substitute for Simone Tiribocchi. Following his debut, Gabbiadini made one further appearance for the club during the 2009–10 Serie A campaign.
