Carlo Carcano (born February 26, 1891 in Varese , Italy , † June 23, 1965 in Sanremo ) was an Italian football player and coach . He coached the Italian national team from 1928 to 1929.

Career

As a player

Carcano played during his active career from 1914 to 1925 with US Alessandria as a midfielder. He became the first national player on his team. Carcano made his debut in the Squadra Azzurra on January 31, 1915 at the age of 23 against Switzerland . Then the First World War interrupted his career, in 1920 he played his second of a total of five international matches. He scored his only goal for Italy on January 18, 1920 against France .

As a trainer

In 1924 Carcano began his coaching career at Valenzana Calcio. A year later, a short but successful appearance at Internaples , the forerunner of SSC Napoli , with which he reached the finals of the southern Italy group of the Italian championship , followed. At the end of the season he returned to the US Alessandria and showed great football expertise: he brought forth important players and even future world champions such as Elvio Banchero , Giovanni Ferrari or Luigi Bertolini and led the Piedmontese team to the final group of the Italian championship in 1928. Between Carcano was national coach in October 1928 and April 1929. He was replaced by Vittorio Pozzo , who would later lead the Azzurri to two world titles.

In 1930 Carcano left Alessandria and joined the then emerging team of Juventus Turin . He led Juve to five Italian championships in a row between 1931 and 1935, making history as the coach of the legendary Quinquennio d'Oro team . For the 1934 World Cup , he was appointed assistant coach of the national team by Vittorio Pozzo. However, his successful work at Juventus and the national team came to an abrupt end. On December 16, 1934, Carcano was officially released for personal reasons. In reality, the voices about his alleged homosexuality grew louder and louder, so that he was no longer acceptable under the fascist regime. He stopped working as a trainer until the end of World War II .

After the war, Carcano returned to the coaching bench for Inter Milan in the 1945/46 season and in 1948.

Carlo Carcano died in Sanremo in 1965 at the age of 74 .
