[edit] Career

[edit] Playing

Orsi, a goalkeeper, made his professional debut in 1979 for Serie C2 club Siena. He made his Serie A debut with Lazio in 1982, a team where he played from 1982 to 1985, and again, as backup keeper, from 1989 until his retirement in 1998.

[edit] Coaching

Orsi became assistant coach of Roberto Mancini at Lazio in 2002. He followed Mancini at Inter Milan two years later. He left Inter in 2006 in order to pursue a career as head coach. Initially rumoured as possible Arezzo coach in 2006/2007, he was surprisingly appointed to a Serie A job on March 21, 2007 by Livorno chairman Aldo Spinelli in order to replace Daniele Arrigoni.
