Joyce Francesco Anacoura (born 1 August 1994) is an Italian footballer who plays for Casertana on loan from Juventus.
Born in Milan, the capital of Lombardy, Anacoura began his career as a player of Lombard club Internazionale in 2004. He left Inter in 2008, when he played for the under-15 team of Pavia during the 2008–09 and 2009–10 campaigns. In July 2010 Anacoura was signed by Emiglia-Romagna-based club Parma on a temporary deal. The Serie A club later bought Anacoura outright, after he managed to appear in 11 games for the Primavera reserve team of Parma during the 2011–12 season.Alberto Gallinetta was another first choice goalkeeper for the Parma reserve team that season.
Interestingly, both Anacoura and Gallinetta were signed by Serie A champions Juventus in a multi-player swap-deal in August 2012 and January 2013 respectively. The transfer agreement saw Raman Chibsah and Filippo Boniperti join Parma.
On 17 August 2012, Anacoura was officially swapped with Raman Chibsah of Juventus on a co-ownership deal. The 50% registration rights of the players were each valued at €750,000 as well as both club retained the half "card". Anacoura signed a 5-year contract with Juventus, but returned to Parma's youth academy immediately.
During the 2012–13 season he served primarily as the backup goalkeeper to Matteo Ferrari who played 7 games) and later to Matteo Cincilla for 8 matches, after his arrival from Inter Milan in January 2013. Anacoura played 8 matches during that season.
In June 2013 the co-ownership deal of Anacoura was renewed but Chibsah was sold outright to Parma in order to finalize his transfer to Sassuolo. On 19 July 2013, along with Juventus youth goalkeeper Federico Gagliardini, they were signed by Italian fourth-tier club, Piedmontese side Cuneo.
