The beginning of 2023 saw Federico reminiscing about his loan moves. He feels that he could not keep his form at Manchester United. However, he did rebuild his career after that. Federico has proven himself a star for Man United on several occasions. He struck two wins for his club in the first two matches he participated in.

Indeed, in his debut match against Aston Villa, he struck a win. Also, he has had legendary players such as Sir Alex Ferguson following his progress.

Back in 2009 April, he had put in considerable effort against Aston Villa. However, he did end up injuring himself. On the other hand, he helped finish the game against Sunderland with a win which was in the following week. In general, the Italian has often helped his clubs to make wins. However, he feels that some loan moves were not right. For instance, in the two-year spell that he had with United, he was given on loan to Sampdoria. However, that was a spell that did not help him progress in his career. Macheda also spent time with clubs at Doncaster, Stuttgart, Queens Park Rangers, and at Birmingham. It was before he left for Cardiff in the year 2014.

After he spent some time in South Wales he spent two years in Italy. However, the move to Panathinaikos was a welcome break for him. This Greek outfit allowed him to prove himself. As a result, he made 40 goals in more than 100 games. It also made Macheda realize that maintaining top form is tough.

Currently, he is with Ankaragucu, a Turkish Super Lig. However, he has not scored goals yet this season. He feels that there has been a lot of learning. He has also overcome many things in his career. He is still remembered for the winning goal he scored for Man United against Aston Villa. What he awaits is his next moment in the limelight.
