Mattia Destro (Italian pronunciation: [matˈtia ˈdɛstro]; born 20 March 1991) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Serie A club Bologna. He is also an Italy international.
Destro started his career with hometown club Ascoli. In the 2004–05 season, he played in the Giovanissimi Nazionali squad, while his father Flavio was coaching the Allievi Nazionali team. In mid-2005, he joined Internazionale's youth system.
Destro was the top-scorer of the Giovanissimi Nazionali team in the 2005–06 season, the second top-scorer of the Allievi Nazionali team in the 2006–07 season (behind Mario Balotelli), and the second top-scorer of the Primavera team in the 2008–09 season (behind Aiman Napoli). Destro won the league with the Allievi Nazionali team in 2008, and also played for the Primavera team – the senior youth team, scoring four goals in the league group stage; 1 in Primavera league playoff, winning 2008 Torneo di Viareggio and losing to Sampdoria in the final of the Primavera League.
Destro scored 18 goals in the 2009–10 Campionato Nazionale Primavera Group Stage and played a few club friendly games for the first team. Destro won the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League despite not being employed in any of the games — he had been included in the Champions League list as one of the under-21 youth products in the B list since the 2008–09 edition of the tournament.
In June 2010, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Internazionale agreed a deal with Genoa to sign the centre back Andrea Ranocchia and that Destro was part of the exchange deal. The transfer became official on 20 July 2010, when Genoa bought a preferential option to sign Destro in a co-ownership deal in June 2010.
