Biography

Born in Palermo, Sicily, Ardizzone started his professional career at U.S. Città di Palermo. He was the member of the reserve from 2009 to 2011. Ardizzone made his debut in the last group stage match of 2010–11 UEFA Europa League on 15 December 2010.[2]

Reggiana

On 1 July 2011 Ardizzone left for Italian third division club Reggiana along with Adriano Siragusa, as part of the deal that Gianluca Di Chiara moved to Palermo. Both clubs retained 50% registration rights of Ardizzone and Di Chiara.[3] Half of the "card" of Di Chiara was valued for €140,000 at that time.[4]

Ardizzone made 21 appearances in 2011–12 Lega Pro Prima Divisione. In June 2012 Reggiana acquired Ardizzone outright.[5][6]

Pro Vercelli

On 29 August 2013 Ardizzone was sold to F.C. Pro Vercelli 1892 in another co-ownership deal for a peppercorn of €500.[7][8][9] In June 2014 the co-ownership of Ardizzone and Mattia Bani were renewed.[10]
