[edit] Liverpool F.C.

On 12th January 2007 Liverpoolfc.tv announced the news that Daniele Padelli would be signing on loan until the end of the season with a view to a permanent deal. On the completion of the deal Liverpool FC manager Rafa Benitez said "He's a good young goalkeeper who has been selected for his national side. Padelli will give us a good option for the future. The fact he is once again with the under-21s for his national side tells you that we are signing a very good player."

The annoucement of his signing has been met with a mixed reaction by Liverpool fans as many believe this could also mean the end for promising England U21 goalkeeper Scott Carson at Liverpool.

[edit] Internationals

An U-20 international in the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, he earned his first U-21 cap against Luxembourg U-21, December 12, 2006, replacing Gianluca Curci on 62 minutes.
