Renato Buso (born 19 December 1969) is an Italian professional football coach and a former player who was deployed as a forward or as a midfielder.
Club career
Born in Treviso, Buso initially began his career playing as a striker or as a centre-forward with Juventus in Serie A in 1985, at the age of 16, immediately winning the 1985–86 Serie A title and the 1985 Intercontinental Cup, although he was mainly a reserve player at the club, behind forwards Aldo Serena, Ian Rush, and Alessandro Altobelli.[1][2] He later moved to Fiorentina in 1989, where he was deployed alongside Roberto Baggio and Oscar Dertycia as a winger, or as a supporting striker. During his time at the club, he played and scored in the 1990 UEFA Cup Final against his former team, although Fiorentina would lose the tournament.[2] He subsequently moved to Sampdoria in 1991, where he won the 1991 Supercoppa Italiana. He began to be deployed as a midfielder as his career progressed, and he later also played for Napoli (1993–1996), Lazio (1996–97), Piacenza (1997–2000), Cagliari (2000–01), ending his career with La Spezia in Serie C1 (2001–04).[3][4]
International career
Buso also represented Italy at youth level at the 1992 Summer Olympics,[5] and at the 1992 UEFA European Under-21 Championship under Cesare Maldini, where he helped Italy to win the tournament, finishing as the top goalscorer,[2] with 3 goals over the semi-final against Denmark, and the final against Sweden.[6] In total, he made 5 appearances for Italy's Olympic Squad,[5] and 25 appearances for the Under-21 side, scoring 9 goals.[2]
Coaching career
On 17 November 2011, he became the new coach of Gavorrano in place of the sacked Guido Pagliuca.[7] He was dismissed in April 2013, with Gavorrano in deep relegation zone under risk of leaving professional football, and replaced by Corrado Orrico.
