Francesco Coco

Who is this?

Francesco Coco (Italian pronunciation: [franˈtʃesko ˈkɔːko]; born 8 January 1977) is an Italian retired footballer who played as a defender. Although naturally right-footed, he played as a left wing-back (his favourite position) or, more commonly, as a left-back. He had spells with both AC Milan and Inter Milan, also spending a season at Barcelona. In his early career, Coco showed much promise and was regarded as a possible successor to Paolo Maldini; however, he failed to live up to expectations. Coco won two Serie A league titles and represented Italy at the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
