Roberto D'Aversa (born 12 August 1975) is a former Italian football player and current coach. He is currently in charge as head coach of Serie B club Virtus Lanciano.

Playing career

A Milan youth product, D'Aversa has mostly played with minor Serie A teams, as well as lower leagues.

In 2004-05 season, he was banned for 6 months for match-fixing. Stefano Bettarini, Antonio Marasco, Maurizio Caccavale, Alfredo Femiano and former Siena teammate Generoso Rossi were also banned.[1]

On the 28 January 2007, he played his first Serie A match for Messina against Ascoli.[2]

In January 2009, he was loaned from Treviso to Mantova. In July 2009, he was released due to Treviso going bankrupt. On the 5 of September 2009, he moved to Gallipoli Calcio.[3] On the 22 of January 2010, he was transferred to Triestina on a 6 months contract.

Post-playing and coaching career

After his retirement, he stayed at Virtus Lanciano as part of the non-playing staff as technical area manager. In July 2014 he was appointed as the club's new head coach to replace Marco Baroni for the 2014–15 Serie B campaign.[4]
