Matteo Bignetti

Matteo Bignetti of Saarbrucken was born in Bruck an der Mur, Austria on 6 May 2004 (age 22).

Matteo Bignetti, born on 6 May 2004 (age 22), is an Austrian goalkeeper currently with Saarbrucken. A commanding 6ft 3in (1.90m), he fits the modern frame for the position, though the main substance of his career so far has come away from the bigger stage.

His time at Sturm Graz II has done most to shape his senior record. Across two seasons he made 52 league appearances, a proper run of games for a young goalkeeper rather than the usual scattered development minutes. His most productive campaign came in 2024-25, when he played 26 league matches and, unusually for his position, scored one league goal.

Bignetti is now at Saarbrucken, with his market value listed at around £340,000 by Transfermarkt. At this stage, his career is still chiefly marked by regular football at Sturm Graz II, with Saarbrucken the next step rather than a completed story.

Bignetti's senior career remained thin by appearance count: he made no appearances in 2023-24, 2024-25 or 2025-26. His path from Eintracht Frankfurt trainee to Sturm Graz and Saarbrucken suggested a goalkeeper still trying to turn squad status into senior minutes.

Bignetti joined Eintracht Frankfurt as a trainee in 2020, then moved to Sturm Graz on a free transfer in 2023. There were no fees or loans in his transfer history, which fitted a low-risk development profile rather than a proven first-team goalkeeper moving for immediate minutes.
