Simone Bentivoglio (born 29 May 1985) is an Italian football coach and former midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

He started his professional career at Juventus. After he spent on loan at Mantova os Serie B, A.C. ChievoVerona bought him in co-ownership deal, for €220,000,[1] but loaned him again to Modena of Serie B, along with Tommaso Chiecchi.[2]

In June 2007, Chievo had to rebuild the team due to relegation, and Bentivoglio was signed permanently for €500,000.[3]

Bentivoglio moved to Serie B club Sampdoria on 24 August 2011 for a season-long loan deal. On 26 January 2012 he was transferred to Padova.[4]

After missing the 2012–2013 season for disqualification due to match-fixing, in the summer of 2013, he resumed with Chievo Verona. After the loan at Brescia in the 2014–2015 season, on 1 July 2015, he returned to Chievo Verona on 28 August but rescinded his contract by mutual agreement, thus remaining unattached; three days later he was hired by Modena. On 8 July 2016, he was presented as a new signing of Venezia.

On 23 July 2019, he signed with Siena.[5] On 10 January 2020, he extended his contract with Siena until June 2021. He was loaned to Virtus Verona for the rest of the 2019–20 season.[6]

On 6 August 2021, he joined amateur club SSD Vigasio.[7]

International career

[edit]

Bentivoglio played with the Italy under-20 side in the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship. He made his Italy U-21 team debut as a starter against Luxembourg U-21 on 12 December 2006.

Coaching career

[edit]

On 19 March 2024, Bentivoglio was hired as the new head coach of Serie C club Arzignano, with Siniša Anđelković as his assistant.[8] Both were dismissed by the end of the 2023–24 season to make room for a new coaching staff.[9]
