Coming through Genoa's youth sector, Sommariva started his senior career in 2016 at Nocerina in the Serie D, winning the honorific play-offs. In 2017 he moved to Bustese, before joining Monza in the Serie C, whom he helped gain promotion to the Serie B for the first time in 19 years.

Career

Youth career

Starting out his youth career at local club Multedo aged nine, Sommariva signed for Genoa's youth team two years later.[1] He remained at their youth sector until 2016.[1]

Early career

On 1 August 2016, Sommariva joined Serie D club Nocerina.[2] He played 24 league games in the 2016–17 season,[3] winning the group G honorific play-offs.[1] On 12 July 2017, he moved to Bustese—also in the Serie D—playing 29 league games in 2017–18.[3]

2018–2020: Serie C

On 11 July 2018, Serie C club Monza announced the signing of Sommariva.[4] He made his debut for the club during the 2018–19 season,[5] on 11 November 2018, in a 1–1 league draw to Vis Pesaro.[6] Sommariva was Monza's goalkeeper for the Coppa Italia Serie C,[1] where they finished runners-up after losing the finals to Viterbese.[7]

The following season, Sommariva only featured in the Coppa Italia Serie C,[7] without making an appearance in the league.[5] After winning the Serie C, Monza were promoted to the Serie B for the first time in 19 years.[8]

2020–present: Serie B

Starting as Monza's third-choice goalkeeper of the season, Sommariva made his Serie B debut on 20 October 2020, in a 1–1 draw to Pisa,[9] due to the positivity of Eugenio Lamanna and Michele Di Gregorio—Monza's first-choice goalkeepers—to COVID-19.[10] Sommariva also played the following game, on 24 October to Chievo, where Monza lost 2–1.[11] On 27 October, he made his debut in the Coppa Italia against Pordenone in the third round.[5] With Monza being reduced to 10 men, Sommariva kept a clean sheet throughout the 120 minutes (including extra time), and saved three of Pordenone's four penalties in the penalty shoot-out, to help Monza pass to the fourth round.[12]

Despite Lamanna's return to the team, Sommariva kept his place as the first-choice keeper against Cittadella in the league;[13] Monza won 2–1 in their first league win of the season.[14]
