Giuseppe Pancaro (Italian pronunciation: [dʒuˈzɛppe ˈpaŋkaro]; born 26 August 1971) is a former Italian football defender turned coach.

A strong, reliable, and tenacious

left-back, who was effective in the air, he was known for his stamina and work-rate, which allowed him to contribute both offensively and defensively. A versatile player, although he was usually deployed along the left flank, he was also capable of playing on the right. His discipline in training ensured that he was rarely injured throughout his career. In addition to his footballing abilities, he was also known for his consistency, correct behaviour, and leadership.[1][2]

Club career

Born in

Inter 3–2.[3][4]

After Cagliari were relegated in 1997, he transferred to

final of the UEFA Cup in 1998.[5]

In the summer of 2003, Pancaro transferred to

final of the 2004–05 UEFA Champions League, notably scoring a goal in an away victory over Brescia in 2003.[5][6] In 2004, he signed a one-year extension for the club.[1]

In 2005, Pancaro moved to

Torino F.C. the following season, retiring at the end of the 2006–07 season, at the age of 36.[7]

International career

Pancaro was first capped for Italy in 1999, making his debut in a 0–0 draw against Croatia on 28 April. In total, he won 19 caps with the Azzurri between 1999 and 2005, but he never took part at a major tournament with Italy. Injury blocked him from playing in UEFA Euro 2004, and he was also in the provisional 26 man squad for UEFA Euro 2000 before missing the final cut.[8][9]

Coaching career

Pancaro took his first coaching role in July 2012, working as assistant to

Modena
and leaving the club together with the whole coaching staff after the latter's dismissal in March 2013.

In June 2014, he was named new head coach of recently relegated

Juve Stabia.[5][10]

On 16 July 2015, Pancaro was assigned new head coach of

Catania.[11]

On 6 March 2018, he was hired as the head coach of

Catanzaro.[12] He left Catanzaro at the end of the 2017–18 season.[13]

On 28 June 2019, he was hired by

Pistoiese.[14]
He left the club at the end of the season.

On 21 October 2022, he was announced as the new head coach of

Monopoli.[15] He was dismissed on 19 March 2023 after a home loss to Giugliano.[16]

Personal life

On 27 June 2007, Pancaro married the Italian former show-girl Vincenza Cacace, with whom he has two children: a son Riccardo, born in December 2005, and a daughter Virginia, born in January 2009.[5]
