Bruno Giorgi (20 November 1940 – 22 September 2010) was an Italian football player and manager who played as a defender.
After an unremarkable career with teams such as Palermo and Reggiana, Giorgi became a football coach. In 1989, after several experiences in minor league football (including a stint at Vicenza during which he had the opportunity to launch a young Roberto Baggio into his early footsteps into first team football), and immediately after narrowly missing top flight promotion with Serie B outsiders Cosenza, he took the head coaching job at Fiorentina (also, his first Serie A job) where he performed badly at domestic league level but also leading the club to the 1989–90 UEFA Cup final, being however removed from his position before the two-legged final itself was actually played.[1]
In 1993, he was appointed head coach of Cagliari, an experience that ended after only one season with a remarkable 1993–94 UEFA Cup semi-final. He returned briefly at Cagliari in 1996 to replace Giovanni Trapattoni, and successively retired from football altogether.[1]
On 29 September 2010, it was revealed that Bruno Giorgi had died exactly a week earlier in a Reggio Emilia clinic.[1]
