Salvatore "Sasà" Sullo (born on October 23, 1971) is an Italian footballer. He is a playmaker who currently plays for Martina. He is mainly known for having been a Messina captain from 2001 to 2007, and part of the squad that gained two promotions which led the team from Serie C1 to Serie A. In 2005 he was forced to temporarily quit football because of a B-cell lymphoma, but fully recovered and returned playing with the giallorossi in eight months' time.^[1]

He left Messina in January 2007 to join Avellino of Serie C1, with his number 41 shirt being retired in commemoration of his services for the club. He was also awarded an honorary Messina citizenship by the local government.^[1] After having won promotion playoffs with Avellino in 2007, he joined Martina, another Serie C1 team, during the summer market.^[2]
