Club Season 2025/2026: The Cantera Treble
View attachment 277634View attachment 277635View attachment 277636View attachment 277637View attachment 277638
The very first year of the famous Cantera Policy proved to be extremely successful for San Marino, as the Titani really managed to win everything this season. Highlights of this fantastic Treble were SM's 10th consecutive Serie A championship and a stunning 5-0 win against Bayern to seal our Champions League triumph (8th CL title overall). Success in Italian Cup, Italian Super Cup and U20 league completed one of the best seasons ever for our club.
Many of our players performed greatly throughout the year as they won various awards and individual accolades: Alessandro Paolone was Serie A & CL Top Scorer as well as European Golden Boot; Gianluca Macina won Best Player of CL; Emanuele Bartoloni won Best Player In Europe Award.
Francesco Campana, Emanuele Corbelli, Lazzaro Dessi, Matteo Leonardi, Emanuele Bartoloni and Alessandro Paolone were selected for Serie A Team Of The Year. Gianluca Macina, Francesco Monti, Alessandro Paolone and Nicola Pedrocchi made the CL Dream Team.

Focus on three key figures this year:

Right-back Francesco Campana was always a special player for SM, at 17 he had to start in the EURO 2024 Final and completely outplayed Germany's world class left winger. Now 19, Campana is automatic first choice for club and country (well not that there's much difference...) and one of the best fullbacks in football, also being described as 'wonderkid' (fourth in SM history after Villa, Bartoloni and Monti). Bartoloni was our POY as he spent all season creating chances for the strikers and scoring a few goals of his own (15 goals and 27 assists in 38 apps), while Paolone was simply Paolone, with 57 season goals and multiple Top Scorer awards (Serie A, CL, Europe) including a typical hat-trick in CL Final. Bartoloni and Paolone, already fan favourites, also reached club legend status at the end of the season - quite an achievement for Bart at only 23!
