Club career
Born in Desio, Sportiello finished his graduation with Atalanta's youth system, and subsequently moved to Seregno in a co-ownership deal.[1] A season later, Atalanta bought the remaining half of his rights back for free.
On 20 June 2011 Sportiello joined Poggibonsi, again in a co-ownership.[2] A year later his rights were fully assigned to La Dea.[3] On 14 July 2012 he moved to Carpi in a season-long loan deal.[4] After being a regular starter during the promotion campaign to Serie B, Sportiello returned to Atalanta, being third-choice (behind Andrea Consigli and Giorgio Frezzolini).
On 4 December 2013 Sportiello made his Atalanta debut, starting in a 2–0 home win over Sassuolo, for the season's Coppa Italia;[5] his Serie A debut came on 12 January of the following year, starting in a 2–1 home success over Catania.[6]
After Consigli's departure to Sassuolo, Sportiello was made starter for the 2014–15 campaign, overtaking veterans Frezzolini and new signing Vlada Avramov.
