Nadir Zortea

Nadir Zortea is an Italian right-back, born on 19 June 1999 (age 27). He is with Bologna, wearing squad number 20, and is valued at around £6.5m by Transfermarkt.

His strongest league season to date came at Cagliari in 2024-2025, when he scored six goals in 35 appearances. For a full-back, that is useful output rather than background noise, and it helped put a firmer shape on his Serie A profile.
