Mark Anthony Sertori (born 1 September 1967) is an English former footballer. He played for numerous clubs in the lower divisions of the Football League, initially as a striker before moving to centre-back. He now works as a sports masseur for Manchester City.[2]

Career[edit]

Born in Manchester, Lancashire, Sertori played for East Manchester before signing for Stockport County in February 1987.[1] He made four league appearances before signing for Football Conference side Lincoln City in 1987, who he made his debut for in a 4–2 defeat at Barnet on 22 August.[1][3] He finished the 1987–88 season with 28 league appearances and six goals as Lincoln won the Conference championship.[4]

He moved to York City in September 1999 for a fee of £25,000 with Sertori agreeing a two-year contract.[5][6] In March 2001, he had three clubs in a week. He departed York for Shrewsbury Town, making a single substitute appearance, before joining Cheltenham Town.[7]

He dropped into non-League football in the summer of 2001, joining Altrincham. In November 2001 he captainedaNorthern Premier League representative XI against an FA representative XI.[8] In July 2002 he signed for Accrington Stanley before moving on to Hyde United in January 2003.[9][10] He retired at the end of the season to concentrate on his new career as a sports masseur.

Sports masseur[edit]

At the tail-end of his professional career, Sertori enrolled on a Professional Footballers' Association-funded course at Cardiff, where he graduated as a masseur as well as qualifying in reflexology and aromatherapy.[11] In 2003, he joined Bolton Wanderers as Sports Therapist and Masseur. He followed Sam AllardycetoNewcastle United whilst maintaining a private practice in Stockport.[12] He is currently masseur at Manchester City.

An Italian speaker, Sertori replaced the long-serving Chelsea masseur Billy McCulloch as a masseur for the England team under Fabio Capello,[13][14] being one of three masseurs in England's 17-man technical staff for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.[15] His role with England continued and he was part of the England 2016 European Championship backroom staff.[16]
