Encyclopedic overview
Cristian Brocchi ( Italian pronunciation: [ˈkristjam ˈbrɔkki]; born 30 January 1976) is an Italian professional football manager and former player.
As a defensive midfielder, Brocchi was rated for his durability and tackling. He began his career with hometown club AC Milan, but he struggled to break into the first team as a youngster. He was subsequently loaned to Pro Sesto and Lumezzane before being sold to Hellas Verona in 1998. His performances for the club earned him a move to Inter Milan in 2000, where he also struggled due to injury. He returned to Milan in 2001, and went on to represent the club for the next seven seasons, aside from a season on loan with Fiorentina, during a highly successful period for the club, which saw him win the Serie A and two UEFA Champions League titles, among other trophies. He ended his career in 2013, after five seasons with Lazio, with whom they won the Coppa Italia twice. At international level, he made his only appearance for the Italy national team in 2006.
