Biography

Born in Gallipoli, the Province of Lecce, Apulia, Scialpi started his career at U.S. Lecce. He left for Serie A club Genoa in temporary deal in summer 2009, but returned to southern Italy in January 2010. That season he was a player of the reserve for both Genoa and Lecce. In summer 2010, Scialpi once again moved to northern Italy for A.S. Varese 1910. Lecce gave Varese half of the registration rights for a peppercorn of €500[1] in order to farm out the player. In January 2012 Scialpi left the reserve for Carpi,[2] however he only played once in 2011–12 Lega Pro Prima Divisione. In June 2012 Varese acquired all the rights from Lecce.[3]

In July 2012 Scialpi left for another third division club Calcio Como along with Alex Benvenga and Paolo Marchi.[4]

International career

Scialpi capped twice for Italy national under-17 football team in 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship elite qualification. He was substituted at half time in the first round (by Leonardo Bianchi) and entered the field in the 54th minute of the third round as the replacement of Alberto Libertazzi. Scialpi missed the final tournament in May due to injury as well as a tournament in Saarland in September 2008 and the U17 Euro qualification. Scialpi played 5 times in October at 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
