biography

Player career

Pioli began his football career in his hometown of Parma and has played for AC Parma, based there, since he was a boy . In 1982 he was appointed to the first team, which is currently in the Series C played. He played there until 1984 and was even able to celebrate promotion to Serie B in his last season . Then he signed with the Italian champions Juventus Turin . The first season with Juventus was very successful, although the team was only sixth in Serie A , but was able to win the European Cup. In the following season he finally managed to become champion with Juventus and furthermore to win the world cup . After another season he left Juventus and joined the Hellas Verona , for which he played in Serie A for two years. From there he moved to the 1989/90 season for Fiorentina . He had a successful time in Florence and even reached the UEFA Cup final in the first season , which was lost to his former club, Juventus Turin. In the next few years, Florence sank in the middle and in the meantime even rose to Serie B, but was able to rise again directly. In 1995 he left Florence and moved to the promoted team from Padova , which he left after only one year and relegation to Serie B. Instead of playing in Serie B, Pioli moved to Serie C and played there for two different clubs before ending his active career in 1998.

Coaching career

A year after Pioli ended his playing career, he became a youth coach at FC Bologna . From there he moved to AC Chievo Verona after three years , where he also worked as a youth coach for a year. In 2003 he went to Serie B as a coach, where he trained Salernitana Calcio . After a weak season in Salernitana, he went to FC Modena , who also played in Serie B. He stayed in Modena for two years, but did not make the hoped-for return to Serie A. Pioli himself made the leap to Serie A, as he was hired for the 2006/07 season at his youth club, AC Parma. In the UEFA Cup , he managed to jump into the round of 32 with Parma, but in the series he was unsuccessful and was replaced by Claudio Ranieri after a 3-0 defeat against AS Roma .

After he was released in Parma, he went to the 2007/08 season in the Serie B to US Grosseto . There he stayed for a season before moving to Piacenza Calcio within the league . After he had led Piacenza to tenth place he moved again within the league to US Sassuolo Calcio . He even led them up to fourth place and narrowly missed promotion with only three points behind Brescia Calcio . On June 10, 2010, he was appointed head coach of AC Chievo Verona.

In Verona, however, Pioli only lasted one season and in June 2011 he was introduced as the coach of US Palermo for the 2011/12 season . With the Sicilians, Pioli signed a two-year contract with an option for a third year. After Pioli failed with Palermo in the third qualifying round for the Europa League at FC Thun , he was dismissed on September 1, 2011 - before the first league game.

In October 2011 he returned to Bologna FC, where he worked as a youth coach from 1999 to 2002. On January 7, 2014, he was sacked after a 2-0 loss to Catania .

In June 2014, Pioli took over the post of head coach at Lazio . He was released on April 3, 2016 after the derby lost 4-1 against AS Roma .

In November 2016, Pioli was introduced as Frank de Boer's successor at Inter Milan . He then led the team, which had previously sunk into mid-table, back into the European Cup. After missing the connection in the second half of the 2016/17 season, Inter Milan released Pioli in May 2017.

From June 6, 2017 to April 9, 2019, the day of his resignation, Pioli was the head coach of Fiorentina , for which he had played most of the games.

After Marco Giampaolo was released from his duties at AC Milan on October 8, 2019 , Pioli became his successor. He signed a contract until 2021.
