Claudio Foscarini (born 19 November 1958) is an Italian football coach.

Career

Early career

He started his coaching career as youth coach for Virescit Boccaleone (who later merged with Alzano to form

Rimini
, where he failed to win the promotion playoffs with the Romagna side.

Cittadella

In 2003, he was appointed youth coach of

Cremonese
in the final. He was confirmed for the club's first campaign back to the Italian second division in 2008–09, in which he managed to save Cittadella from relegation.

Cittadella's second Serie B season in 2009–10 proved to be far more successful, as Citta' found themselves well into the battle for a potentially historical promotion to the top flight, qualifying for the promotion playoff, then lost to Brescia in the semi-finals. In 2010–11, Cittadella maintained their place in the second division, ending the season in 14th place and ensuring him a one-year contract extension. He left Cittadella by the end of the 2014–15 season, after failing to save his team from relegation to Lega Pro.

Pro Vercelli and Livorno

In October 2015, Foscarini returned into management as the new head coach of Serie B strugglers

Livorno
with the goal to bring the recently relegated Lega Pro club back to Serie B.

Avellino

He was appointed manager of

Avellino on 3 April 2018.[4]
After saving Avellino from relegation by the end of the season, he was not confirmed due to the club's exclusion from the league because of administrative issues.

Padova

On 6 November 2018, he was named head coach of newly-promoted Serie B club Padova to replace Pierpaolo Bisoli.[5] He was sacked on 28 December 2018 following a series of negative results.[6]

AlbinoLeffe

On 21 February 2023, after more than four years without a club, Foscarini returned to management as the new head coach of

AlbinoLeffe.[7] Foscarini left AlbinoLeffe by the end of the season, after guiding them to defeat Mantova
in the relegation playoffs.
