Career edit
At the age of 13, Palmieri trialed for the youth academy of Chelsea, one of England's most successful clubs,[1] amid interest from the youth academies of Arsenal and Fulham in the English Premier League[2] but the transfer never happened.[3]
In 2020, he signed for French Ligue 1 side Lille from the youth academy of Napoli in the Italian Serie A,[4] before being sent on loan to Italian third division club Fermana.[5]
