Pierpaolo Bisoli (born November 20, 1966 in Porretta Terme ) is a former Italian football player and current coach. Senior career kicked little in appearance, he was the coach of the AC Cesena twice for promotion to the Serie A . Bisoli is currently the coach of the second division US Cremonese .

Player career

Pierpaolo Bisoli, born in Porretta Terme in the province of Bologna in 1966 , began playing football for the local club Porretta CFGC. In 1984 he was signed by AC Pistoiese . Pistoiese had fallen deep after the adventure of first class in the 1980/81 season and only played in the third-class C1 series . And Bisolis was relegated from this in the first year, but he still played for Pistoiese until 1987. In three years he made a total of 66 league games with three goals for the club before he joined the US Alessandria from Italy's deepest north. Here Bisoli played for a year in Serie C2 in a total of 33 games. After the end of the 1987/88 season, the midfielder changed employers again and signed a new contract with AC Arezzo , where he only stayed for one season. Just recently relegated from Serie B , Arezzo came eleventh in Serie C1 in 1988/89. Pierpaolo Bisoli then represented the colors of FC Esperia Viareggio from 1989 to 1991 and made promotion to Serie C2 with the club.

From 1991 to 1997 Bisoli experienced the most consistent phase in his career. In six years at Cagliari Calcio , he made 164 games in the league, in which five goals jumped out. In six years of first division football, however, Bisoli was also there when the Sardinians advanced to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup in the 1993/94 season after successes over Dinamo Bucharest from Romania , Trabzonspor from Turkey , KV Mechelen from Belgium and league rivals Juventus Turin . There, however, the eventual winner Inter Milan was too big a hurdle. As a result, the performance in Serie A got worse and worse, which was a logical consequence of relegation in the 1996/97 season . This ended Pierpaolo Bisoli's time in Cagliari , he left the club in the direction of FC Empoli , where he played first division football under Luciano Spalletti for two years, but was relegated again at the end of Serie A in 1998/99 . He then went to AC Perugia , with whom he was tenth in Serie A 1999/2000 . This was followed by a one-year commitment at Brescia Calcio , where seventh place was achieved in the league. Back at Pistoiese and his hometown club Porretta CFGC, Pierpaolo Bisoli let his football career fade away for a year from 2001 to 2003 before ending it at the age of 37.

Coaching career

After the end of his career as an active football player, Pierpaolo Bisoli became a coach. From 2002 to 2004 he initially coached the Porretta CFGC team as a player-coach. Then he was under Dino Zoff for the last eighteen match days of the Serie A 2004/05 assistant coach at Fiorentina . After the end of the season, they only just managed to stay in the league. But with this work at Fiorentina Bisoli managed to get into the coaching of the upper leagues. In two years at AC Prato from 2005 to 2007 he worked as a real coach in Serie C2 for the first time. With Foligno Calcio , Bisoli was even fourth in Serie C1 and only missed promotion to Serie B by losing in the semi-finals of the playoffs against AS Cittadella . After the good results with Foligno Calcio, Pierpaolo Bisoli was the new coach in the summer of 2008 at the former first division club AC Cesena , meanwhile disappeared in the shallows of the Lega Pro Prima Divisione. Bisoli first won the championship in Girone A of Lega Pro Prima Divisione 2008/09 with a two point lead over Aurora Pro Patria , which resulted in the club's return to the second Italian division. And there Cesena was sensationally convincing. Over the entire season, they stayed in the upper reaches of Serie B 2009/10 and after the end of all game days they were in second place in the table, only behind US Lecce . With just 29 goals conceded, the newcomer was by far the best defense in the league. Thus, for the first time since 1991, AC Cesena was first class again, but successful coach Bisoli turned his back on the team and handed over to Massimo Ficcadenti .

Bisoli became the new coach at Cagliari Calcio, but his dismissal came after just twelve match days. He only survived six match days as coach of FC Bologna at the beginning of Serie A 2011/12 before Stefano Pioli replaced him. In the same year, Bisoli's old club AC Cesena was relegated from Serie A and initially planned the re-promotion project with the young Nicola Campedelli as coach. After three matchdays he was dismissed, his successor was Pierpaolo Bisoli. Under his aegis, Cesena stabilized in the league and was fourteenth at the end of the season. A year later, however, they triumphed again, the 2013/14 series ended in fourth place in the table. This meant promotion games in which they first won against FC Modena and finally against the US Latina and thus after two years the return to first class could be established. In Serie A, however, Cesena started weak and could only win one of the first fourteen league games. In the penultimate place, the club parted ways with Pierpaolo Bisoli in early December 2014 after a little more than two years. Pierpaolo Bisoli has been coaching the AC Perugia team since the beginning of Serie B 2015/16 .
