After coming through the youth ranks of Hellas Verona, Coppola made his professional debut with the first team on 15 December 2021, coming on as a substitute during a 4–3 Coppa Italia loss to Empoli.[1] He subsequently made his Serie A debut on 15 January 2022, replacing Adrien Tameze at the 80th minute of the league game against Sassuolo.[2] On 27 February, the defender made his first start for Verona, playing the entirety of the Serie A game against Venezia.[3]
On 20 April 2022, Coppola officially extended his contract with the club, signing a new five-year deal.[4]
International careeredit
Coppola has represented Italy at various youth international levels, having played for the under-18, under-19 and under-20 national teams.[5]
A centre-back that can play both in a back three or in a back four, Coppola has showed good athleticism despite his height, as well as a notable tactical intelligence and decent ball-playing skills.[8]
Positioning, marking and anticipation are his strongest traits in the defensive phase of his game.[8]
