Italian talent Luca Reggiani, 18, became the youngest Italian goalscorer in the Bundesliga as he found the net in a 2-0 win over Augsburg on Saturday.
Italian defender Reggiani scored his first Bundesliga goal for Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
The 18-year-old played the full 90 minutes and bagged his first goal for the German side with a header from a corner kick routine in the second half.
As reported by Opta, Reggiani has become the youngest Italian player to score in one of the top five European leagues, excluding Serie A, since Pietro Pellegri in 2018. Reggiani has also become the youngest Italian to score a goal in the Bundesliga.
“It’s crazy. I couldn’t believe it when I saw the ball going in. I can’t say how the feeling was because it was really amazing to score my first goal,” said at full time.
“It’s all happening so fast. Last month, I made my debut, then the Champions League, and now my first goal. I’m very happy with what is happening. I thank the club and everyone.”
A product of the Castelvetro Calcio and Sassuolo academies, Reggiani joined the Borussia Dortmund youth sector from the Neroverdi in 2014.
The promising defender made his debut with the Italy U19 squad this past January.
