Simone Tonelli (born 13 June 1991) is an Italian footballer who plays as a midfielder or forward.
Tonelli started his career in a local side of Fano – A.S.D. C.S.I. Delfino Fano. He then signed by A.C. Cesena and played in the "Berretti" reserve league in 2008–09 season. Tonelli spent 2009–10 season in the "spring" reserve league (dedicated for the reserve of Serie A and B), as Cesena was promoted.
In mid-2010 Tonelli left for amateur club Santarcangelo along with Angelo Gregorio and Nicola Del Pivo. The club won the Group F of 2010–11 Serie D and promoted.
On 30 June 2011, the last day of 2010–11 financial year, Tonelli was sold to Serie B club Vicenza in co-ownership, for €600,000. Co-currently, Edoardo Bonicelli was signed by Cesena in the same formula. Tonelli signed a 4-year contract while Bonicelli signed a 3-year deal. Despite both players yet to make professional debut at that time, the aggressive price tag made both club had a profit of €1.2 million despite in form of increase in intangible asset (Tonelli for Vicenza; Bonicelli for Cesena). Moreover, it created an amortize cost of €400,000 to Cesena in next 3 seasons and Vicenza of €300,000 in next 4 seasons if both players eventually worth nothing. Lastly, both clubs had to pay VAT. On 30 June 2011, Cesena had a positive net asset of €502,106 thus passed the financial test for 2011–12 Serie A without re-capitalization due to negative equity. However the positive net equity was boosted by G.Bassoli (€2M), Palumbo (€2M), J.Luppi (€1.5M) and Bonicelli (€1.2M). On Vicenza side, the club had a positive net equity of €5,210,591 which boosted by new signing Minesso (€2M) and Tonelli (€1.2M) as well as residual value of retired player Di Donato (€0.6M).
