Stefano Pioli (born October 19, 1965 in Parma) is an Italian football (soccer) manager. He was recently dismissed from Serie A club Parma.
[edit] Playing career
Pioli, a native of Parma, started his own playing career for his home city team, AC Parma. Successively, he was signed by Juventus, with whom he had his Serie A debut in 1984. Sold to Verona in 1987, Pioli moved to Fiorentina in 1989, where he spent six years of his career. He ended his career in 1998 for Fiorenzuola of Serie C1, after two experiences with Padova and Pistoiese.
[edit] Managing career
From 1999 to 2002 Pioli coached Bologna's youth team, and Chievo Verona's in 2002/2003. In 2003/2004, he was appointed as head coach of Serie B club Salernitana. He moved to Modena, still of Serie B, in 2004. In 2006, Pioli was named as Parma's head coach, therefore returning to his home city. He was sacked on February 12, 2007, after a 3-0 loss to AS Roma which brought Parma down to second-last place.
