Antonio Vergara "Rising Star Of The Month" for February
The Rising Star Of The Month award for February has been assigned to Napoli player Antonio Vergara. The trophy will be presented during the pre-match of Napoli vs Torino, scheduled for Friday 6 March 2026 at 8.45 p.m. at the “Diego Armando Maradona” Stadium in Naples.
The winner of the trophy, reserved for Under-23 players (born starting from 1 January 2003), has been selected taking into account the advanced analysis of Kama Sport, created from the tracking data recorded with the Hawk-Eye system. The rating system considers not only statistical data and technical events, but also positional data. This makes it possible to analyse crucial aspects such as movement without the ball and thus optimal movements, game choices, and the contribution to the technical and physical efficiency of the team, which allow for an objective and qualitative evaluation of the performance.
For the final calculation were considered the matchdays from 23 to 26 of Serie A 2025/2026.
