Vincent Sasso

Vincent Julien Sasso (born 16 February 1991) is a French professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Primeira Liga club Boavista.

Club career
Sasso was born in Saint-Cloud, Paris. On 18 June 2008, he signed his first professional contract with FC Nantes. He made his professional debut on 31 July 2010 in a 4–2 penalty shootout away loss against US Boulogne in the first round of the Coupe de la Ligue, and went on to spend two seasons with the first team in Ligue 2, contributing 20 games to a 13th place in 2010–11.

In summer 2012, Sasso joined S.C. Beira-Mar in Portugal for three years. He scored his first goal for the Aveiro club on 6 October, putting the visitors ahead in an eventual 2–1 defeat at S.L. Benfica. His team went on to suffer relegation, but he had already left in late January 2013 to fellow Primeira Liga side S.C. Braga, on a contract until June 2017.

On 30 June 2015, Sasso was loaned to Sheffield Wednesday from the English Championship in a season-long move. After making only 18 competitive appearances, he left.

In August 2016, Sasso rejoined Wednesday after signing a permanent one-year contract. He returned to Portugal and its top division the following off-season, agreeing to a two-year deal at C.F. Os Belenenses as a free agent; he also represented the renamed B-SAD.

Sasso moved to the Swiss Super League on 17 June 2019, signing with Servette FC for three seasons. He played his first match in the competition on 21 July in a 1–1 draw away to BSC Young Boys, and scored his first goal on 31 August as the hosts drew 2–2 against Neuchâtel Xamax FCS after being 2–0 down.

On 7 June 2022, Sasso returned to the Portuguese top tier, on a two-year contract at Boavista FC. He scored a career-best four league goals in his debut campaign from 27 official games, but subsequently played second-fiddle to Rodrigo Abascal and Chidozie Awaziem.

International career
Sasso won caps for France at youth level. His only for the under-21s was on 2 June 2011, as a late substitute in the 1–0 friendly win over Serbia in Rouen.
