Francesco "Franco" Scoglio (May 2, 1941 - October 3, 2005) was an Italian football coach.

[edit] Biography

Francesco Scoglio was born in Lipari, in the province of Messina.

Nicknamed il Professore (the Professor) because of his past teaching activity (he was a pedagogy graduate), Scoglio never actually had a playing career. He started a managing career in 1972 in one of the Reggina youth teams. He then went on coaching at amateur and Serie C levels in Sicily and Calabria (Gioiese, Messina, Acireale, Akragas). It was Scoglio who discovered the great potential of Salvatore Schillaci, one of his players during Scoglio's second stint in Messina.

However, Scoglio is most remembered for his time in Genoa CFC, which was also the team for which he first coached in Serie A. After two enthusiastic years in Genoa, to where he returned in 1993 and 2001, Scoglio did not achieve great success with his next clubs, being often fired before the end of the season. He is also known for having coached the national teams of Tunisia and Libya. His last coaching (and unsuccessful) experience was on 2002/2003 for SSC Napoli.

Scoglio then became a very popular TV commenter on football shows in Italy, and even worked for Al Jazeera as the technical expert reporting on the Italian league. The Stadio San Filippo, the home ground of Messina, will be probably renamed after him from the 2006/2007 season.

[edit] Death

Franco Scoglio died of a heart attack at 64 years of age by collapsing while sitting during a transmission in the Genoan private TV station "Primocanale", after a heated discussion over the phone with Genoa chairman Enrico Preziosi.
