Luigi Apolloni Biography

Luigi Apolloni is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on May 2, 1967 in Frascati, Lazio, Italy. Luigi Apolloni, Italian pronunciation: [lu’i:dZ[i] apol’lo:ni]; born 2 mai 1967), is a former football player and manager from Italy. He played as a centre back. Apolloni’s 13-year tenure with Parma Calcio 1913 is his most prominent club achievement. He was also a member the Italy national football team, which reached the final of FIFA World Cup 1994.

Apolloni was forced to retire in 1996 after sustaining a serious injury. He left Parma in 1999 to sign with Hellas Verona and then ended his career in 2001, having made 255 appearances in the top flight of the Italian soccer league and scored 7 goals.

In January 2009, Apolloni was appointed as caretaker manager of the canarini after Zoratto left the club by mutual consent. He was then permanently appointed to the role after he managed to guide Modena to escape relegation at the final day of the season. In his first full season in charge of the club, Apolloni guided Modena to a mid-table place in the league despite severe financial issues within the club. In July 2010 he left Modena to join ambitious Serie B club Grosseto. He was however removed by the end of September due to poor results, and replaced by Francesco Moriero.

On 2 April 2012, he was appointed as new head coach of Gubbio in the Italian Serie B league until the end of the season, thus becoming the fourth manager of the season for the small relegation-threatened Umbrian club (after Fabio Pecchia, Luigi Simoni and Marco Alessandrini).

Apolloni’s success with Parma earned him a spot in the Italian team under coach Arrigo Sacchi. He made his international debut in a 2-0 win against Finland on 27 May 1994. He made 15 appearances for Italy in 1994-96 and was part of the azzurri team that reached the final at the 1994 FIFA World Cup. He also played in their Euro 1996 campaign. His appearances in Italy’s first two group matches saw him play against Russia, winning 2-1, before being defeated by the Czech Republic, who was a eventual runners-up. The Italians lost in the first round.
