Massimo Pedrazzini (born 3 February 1958 in Milan) is an Italian football coach and former player.

Career

Player

A former midfielder who mostly played with Serie B and Serie C1 clubs, he won a total of four promotions in his playing career, with Triestina, Catanzaro (both to Serie B), Mantova (promotion to Serie C1) and Fiorenzuola (promotion to Serie C2).

Coach

He then became a football coach, working from 1991 to 1996 within AC Milan's youth system. In 2002-03, he enjoyed his first head coaching experience at the helm of Serie C2's Monza, and later joined Walter Zenga's coaching staff, serving as his assistant with Steaua Bucureşti, Red Star Belgrade, Gaziantepspor and Al Ain FC. On September 2007 he was appointed as interim head coach following Gheorghe Hagi's resignations. He was successively dismissed on late October and replaced by Marius Lăcătuş,[1] but accepted to stay at Steaua as assistant coach.[2] He then served as caretaker manager for the final three games of the 2008–09 season, after Marius Lăcătuş stepped down as Steaua boss on May 2009.[3]

In June 2009 he agreed to return working alongside Walter Zenga, becoming assistant coach of Sicilian Serie A club Palermo,[4][5][6] which he left later in November after Zenga was dismissed.
