[edit] Playing career

Bonetti made his professional debut in the 1978-79 season with Brescia. He then moved to AS Roma in 1980, and played for the giallorossi until 1986, except for a one season spell at Sampdoria in 1982-83. In 1986 he signed for AC Milan, but failed to impress and moved to Verona only one year later. In 1989 he transferred to Juventus, where he played two season. A return to Sampdoria in 1991 was followed by a single season at SPAL in 1992, and retirement in 1993.

In all his whole playing career in the Serie A, Dario Bonetti was suspended for a total of 39 matches, this being as of 2007 an absolute record.

[edit] Managing career

After his retirement, Dario Bonetti became coach of amateur Genoa side Sestrese in 1999, with his brother Ivano as player. Both brothers then jointly managed Scottish team Dundee from 2000 to 2002, with Dario officially acting as Ivano's technical assistant.[1][2] On February 2005, Dario Bonetti was then appointed head coach of Serie C2 club Potenza.[3] He then announced a surprising move to Hungarian side MFC Sopron on February 2006,[4] thus joining fellow Italian Giuseppe Signori. Bonetti was then sacked on May 2006, after the final matchday, a 1-0 home loss to Rákospalotai EAC,[5] but made a comeback at the Hungarian side on March 2007.[6] On June 22, 2007 he was unveiled as new head coach of Italian Serie C1 team Gallipoli.[7]
