Player career

Career

Marco Baroni, born on September 11, 1963 in the Italian city of Florence , began playing football for the local club AC Florence . There he not only went through the youth departments, but also made his debut in the first team in 1981. In the first division season 1981/82 , however, the defender came only to a single use and left his home club the following summer. At AC Monza , Baroni played an average Serie B season and came to 29 appearances in the league. He then went to the ambitious league competitor Calcio Padova , where he subsequently kicked the ball for two years and made 67 appearances in the second Italian football league. In his second season in Padua , however, the move to the third division had to be started somewhat surprisingly. Then Marco Baroni was signed by the first division club Udinese Calcio , where he came to 24 league games in 1985/86 in Serie A and was only able to prevent relegation to Serie B by two points over SC Pisa . After a short interlude at AS Roma , which was mainly characterized by a substitute role, Baroni played for US Lecce from 1987 to 1989 . With the club from the south of Italy , the defender managed to return to the highest stage of Italian club football. As second in the Serie B 1987/88 only behind the FC Bologna , the team of coach Carlo Mazzone made the renewed leap into the first class. There, with ninth place, the sovereign league was achieved.

In the US Lecce jersey, Marco Baroni also drew the attention of the SSC Napoli management team . In the summer of 1989 he was finally signed by the reigning UEFA Cup winner. Baroni spent the two most successful years of his footballing career in Naples and also won his only two titles as a player during this time. First he was with the team of coach Alberto Bigon in Serie A 1989/90 Italian football champions. In the end, they finished first in Serie A with a two point lead over their first rival AC Milan . Marco Baroni scored the decisive goal to 1-0 in the last game of the season against Lazio Rome , through which Napoli brought the championship under one roof. A little later there was the game for the Supercoppa Italiana against the cup winners Juventus Turin . Here the SSC Napoli prevailed in the home stadium San Paolo with a historic 5: 1, which is often regarded as the high point, but also as a turning point of the great era of the SSC at the end of the 80s. After that it went downhill for Marco Baroni's team, less than ten years later they found themselves in Serie B.

Marco Baroni himself stayed at SSC Napoli until 1991 and then moved to FC Bologna , where he spent the next two seasons. He later came to AC Ancona via the US Poggibonsi and later in his playing career to Hellas Verona and finally to VG Rondinella Marzocco , where he ended his playing career at the age of 37 in 2000. Then Baroni, who also played sixteen international matches for the Italian U21 national team between 1985 and 1990, became a soccer coach.

Career

After the end of his active football career, Marco Baroni became coach. Here he initially led the fortunes of his old club Rondinella Marzocco, where he was responsible on the sidelines from 2000 to 2001. Several positions followed, for example from 2003 to 2004 at Carrarese Calcio , from 2005 to 2006 at FC Südtirol or from 2006 to 2007 at AC Ancona .

After that, Baroni started working as a youth coach. Between 2007 and 2009 he was in charge of youth training at AC Siena . At the beginning of the 2009/10 season he took over the position of Siena head coach from the dismissed Marco Giampaolo , but soon had to leave himself. Baroni was followed by Alberto Malesani , with whom AC Siena was relegated from Serie A for the first time. After his brief interlude as coach of the first team in Siena, Marco Baroni returned to youth work and coached the team until the end of the 2009/10 season. He then became the new head coach of the US Cremonese , but was dismissed after just ten match days of the Lega Pro Prima Divisione .

From 2011 to 2013 Marco Baroni worked as a youth coach at Juventus Turin , with whom he won the Italian youth football cup in 2013. A year earlier, Baroni was also awarded the Trofeo Maestrelli al miglior allenatore delle giovanili as the best youth coach in Italy .

Marco Baroni ended his engagement with Juventus Turin in the summer of 2013. A little later he signed a contract as the new head coach of the second division club SS Virtus Lanciano . Baroni played a surprisingly strong season with the club, which at times kept the underdog in the race for promotion to Serie A. At the end of the 2013/14 season Virtus Lanciano was tenth with coach Marco Baroni. He then resigned from his position as head coach and signed a contract with league rival Delfino Pescara in 1936, succeeding Serse Cosmi . He worked there for almost a year but was fired one match day before the end of 2014/15 . The following season Baroni took over at second division promoted Novara Calcio . Despite deducting points, Baroni Novara Calcio led to the playoffs for promotion to Serie A, but failed there because of his old club Delfino Pescara.

For the 2016/17 season Marco Baroni then took over as head coach at the second division promoted Benevento Calcio . With the team from the Campanian city of Benevento , Baroni played a surprisingly successful second division season, at the end of which the fifth place and thus participation in the playoffs for promotion to Serie A was achieved. There Benevento Calcio prevailed one after the other against Spezia Calcio , AC Perugia and in the final against FC Carpi and made it into Italy's top football league for the first time in the club's history. There, however, the start of the season clearly failed: Benevento lost all of the first nine games, whereupon Baroni was dismissed along with sports director Salvatore Di Somma.
