Born on the 21st of June in the year 2000 (now aged 25), in the United States of America, Dante Polvara is an adept midfielder, lending his talent primarily to the central midfield position for Aberdeen, a team located in the dreich north of Scotland. Polvara's physical prowess is evidenced in his towering height of 1.93m (or 6ft 3in in old money) and substantial weight of 81kg (12st 10lb). When he steps onto the pitch, you'll spot him sporting the number 8 jersey.
According to the popular football player market resource, Transfermarkt, Polvara's market value is roughly €400k, which, after a swift conversion and rounding, translates to approximately £340k. Polvara's contract with Aberdeen is set to expire on the 31st of May, 2026; he has but nine months left to run.
Polvara's professional journey with Aberdeen began in the cold month of January of 2022. He has since had the honour of donning the Aberdeen jersey and stepping on the Scottish Premiership turf on numerous occasions. In his debut season in 2021 - 2022, he made just five first team appearances, a number that would shrink to three in the ensuing 2022 - 2023 season. However, 2023 - 2024 saw an upswing in Polvara's time on the pitch, where he made 28 first team appearances and scored two goals in league matches. Unfortunately, the next season, 2024 - 2025, saw his game time decrease to just 11 appearances, but he's currently been seen in four first team games so far in the ongoing 2025 - 2026 season.
In the temperamental month of March in 2023, Polvara temporarily bid farewell to the Scottish shores to join Charleston Battery in the USL, a stint that lasted until July of the same year, after which he returned to Aberdeen, presumably enlightened by the experience and eager to play in the Scottish Premiership once more.
Aside from his tenure in Aberdeen and temporary gig in America, some other highlights in Polvara's footballing history include his participation in the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025, where he started a match and had three substitute appearances; his impressive goal scoring in the Europa League Qualifiers of 2025 - 2026, where he scored once starting in one match and making a substitute appearance; and the Conference League 2023 - 2024 where he scored two goals in four appearances and one as a substitute.
