*Club domestic league appearances and goals

Alessandro Del Piero (born 9 November 1974) is a famous Italian former professional footballer. He mostly played as a second striker, which means he played just behind the main forward. He was also great at taking free kicks. Since 2015, he has worked as a pundit, sharing his football knowledge on TV for Sky Sport Italia.

Del Piero was known for scoring many goals. He is the second-highest Italian goal scorer of all time in all competitions, with 346 goals. He also ranks among the top goal scorers in Serie A history, Italy's top football league. He started his career with Padova in 1991. In 1993, he joined Juventus, where he played for 19 seasons. He was the team's captain for 11 of those years. He holds the club records for most goals (290) and most appearances (705).

During his time at Juventus, Del Piero won many important titles. These include six Serie A titles, the Coppa Italia, four Supercoppa Italiana titles, and the UEFA Champions League. He also won the UEFA Super Cup, the UEFA Intertoto Cup, and the Intercontinental Cup. After leaving Juventus in 2012, he played for Sydney FC in Australia and Delhi Dynamos FC in India before retiring in 2014.

Del Piero has scored in every competition he has played in. In 2004, he was named in the FIFA 100, a list of the 125 greatest living footballers chosen by Pelé. He also won the Golden Foot award, which recognizes a player's personality and skill. For Italy, Del Piero played in three FIFA World Cups and four UEFA European Football Championships. He famously won the 2006 FIFA World Cup with Italy and reached the final of UEFA Euro 2000. He is the joint fourth-highest scorer for the Italian national team, with 27 goals.

Early Life and First Steps in Football

Alessandro Del Piero was born in Conegliano, Italy. His father, Gino, was an electrician, and his mother, Bruna, was a housekeeper. As a child, he often played football in his backyard with friends. All of them dreamed of becoming professional footballers, but only Alessandro made it.

His older brother, Stefano, played professional football briefly before an injury ended his career. Stefano later became Alessandro's agent. The Del Piero family lived in a small, rural village. They didn't have much money for travel, so Alessandro once thought about becoming a lorry driver to see the world.

When he first played for his local youth team, San Vendemiano, Del Piero played as a goalkeeper. His mother thought this would be safer and less tiring for him. However, his brother Stefano saw his talent and told their mother that Alessandro was much better suited to playing as a forward. So, he switched to an attacking role.

Club Career Highlights

Starting Out with Padova

Del Piero began his journey in professional football in 1981 with San Vendemiano. In 1988, scouts noticed his talent, and he left home at 13 to join the youth team of Padova. He joined the senior team in the 1991–92 season when he was just 16. He made his professional debut in Serie B on 15 March 1992.

In the next season, on 22 November 1992, he scored his first professional goal in a big 5–0 win. In 1993, Juventus bought Del Piero for a large sum of money, recognizing his great potential.

Juventus: A Legendary Journey

Early Success and Nicknames

In 1993, Del Piero moved to Juventus, where he would play for 19 seasons. He first played with the youth team, helping them win important championships. He made his Serie A debut for Juventus on 12 September 1993. He scored his first goal in his very next game. In his first full start for Juventus, he scored three goals, which is called a hat-trick.

The 1994–95 Serie A season was a big one for Del Piero. He played a more important role after another star player, Roberto Baggio, got injured. Juventus went on to win their first league title in nine years. Del Piero scored 8 goals that season, including a memorable chipped goal against Fiorentina. He also won the 1994–95 Coppa Italia with Juventus.

During this time, Del Piero earned the nickname Pinturicchio. This was given to him by former Juventus president Gianni Agnelli. He compared Del Piero to a famous Renaissance artist, just as he had compared Baggio to another great artist, Raphael. This showed how elegant Del Piero was with the ball.

For the 1995–96 season, Del Piero was given the famous No. 10 jersey, which had been worn by legends like Michel Platini. He helped Juventus win the 1995–96 UEFA Champions League, scoring 6 goals in the competition. The next season, he won the 1996 UEFA Super Cup and the 1996 Intercontinental Cup, scoring in both finals. He also won his second Serie A title.

In the 1997–98 Serie A season, Del Piero had his best year yet, scoring 21 goals in Serie A. He was also the top scorer in the 1997–98 UEFA Champions League with 10 goals. He helped Juventus reach their third Champions League final in a row. Juventus also won their 25th Serie A title that season. Del Piero was named the Serie A Italian Footballer of the Year. Fans nicknamed him Il Fenomeno Vero ("The Real Phenomenon") because of his amazing skills.

Overcoming Injuries

In November 1998, Del Piero suffered a serious knee injury that kept him out for the rest of the season. Juventus struggled without him. After his injury, Del Piero worked hard to get stronger and adapt his game. There were some claims about performance-enhancing drugs during this period, but after a long investigation, the club's staff were cleared of all allegations in 2005.

In the 1999–2000 Serie A season, Del Piero became a great assist provider, setting up many goals for his teammates. He helped Juventus win the 1999 UEFA Intertoto Cup. The next season, Juventus narrowly missed out on the 2000–01 Serie A title. Del Piero scored a goal against Bari in February 2001, dedicating it to his father, who had recently passed away.

New Triumphs and Captaincy

When coach Marcello Lippi returned to Juventus, Del Piero was named captain. He formed a strong attacking team with David Trezeguet and Pavel Nedvěd. Del Piero scored 16 goals and provided many assists as Juventus won the Serie A title on the very last day of the season. He also scored his 100th and 101st goals for Juventus that season.

In the 2002–03 Serie A season, Juventus won the 2002 Supercoppa Italiana with Del Piero scoring two goals. They also successfully defended their Serie A title. In the 2002–03 UEFA Champions League, Del Piero scored important goals, helping Juventus reach the final against AC Milan. Although Del Piero scored his penalty in the shootout, Juventus lost the final.

The 2003–04 Serie A season saw Juventus win the 2003 Supercoppa Italiana again. However, they finished third in Serie A and were knocked out early in the Champions League.

Calciopoli and Relegation

Under new coach Fabio Capello, Del Piero sometimes started on the bench. Despite this, he still scored 14 goals as Juventus won their 28th league title. He also helped Juventus reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

In the 2005–06 Serie A season, Del Piero scored 12 goals in Serie A and 20 goals overall. On 10 January 2006, he became Juventus's all-time leading goal scorer, passing the previous record of 182 goals held by Giampiero Boniperti. Juventus won the Serie A title again, but then a big scandal called Calciopoli happened. Juventus was forced to move down to Serie B, and their last two league titles were taken away.

Leading Juventus in Serie B

After Juventus was relegated, Del Piero promised to stay and help the team. He said that the club's owners and fans deserved his loyalty. Many key players left, but Del Piero chose to stay and help Juventus get back to Serie A.

Del Piero's first game after Italy won the 2006 World Cup was in the 2006–07 Coppa Italia. He came on as a substitute and scored the winning goal for Juventus just nine seconds later. Juventus won promotion back to Serie A as champions of Serie B. Del Piero was the top scorer in the 2006–07 Serie B season with 20 goals. He also scored his 200th goal for Juventus that season.

At the end of the 2007–08 season, Del Piero scored two goals against Sampdoria, bringing his total to 21 goals for the season. This made him the top scorer in Serie A for the first time. Juventus finished third, qualifying for the 2008–09 UEFA Champions League.

In August 2008, Del Piero said he wanted to keep playing for Juventus until he was 40. In the Champions League, he scored a winning free-kick against Zenit Saint Petersburg. On 21 October, he scored a fantastic curling goal from distance as Juventus beat Real Madrid 2–1.

Player Profile

How Del Piero Played

Del Piero was known in Italy as a "fantasista," which means a creative and skillful player. He was known for his hard work, creativity in attack, and ability to both assist and score goals. He usually played as a supporting striker, just behind the main forward. He was very versatile and could play anywhere across the front of the attack.

He was also sometimes used as a playmaking attacking midfielder, a role known as trequartista in Italy. This was because of his great vision, passing, ball control, and dribbling skills. He could also drift to the wings and cut inside to shoot. Del Piero was also known for his defensive effort and his accurate crossing.

His Famous "Del Piero Goal"

Del Piero was a specialist at free kicks and penalty kicks. He is one of the highest scorers of penalties and free kicks in Serie A history. His unique free-kick technique involved curling the ball high over the wall, making it drop suddenly into the top corner of the goal. He learned a lot about free kicks from watching Roberto Baggio and Michel Platini.

The football world often talks about a "Del Piero Goal" (Gol alla Del Piero in Italian). This is a special way of scoring where a player dribbles from the side of the field, then curls the ball precisely into the far top corner of the goal from outside the penalty area. This area of the field became known as the "Del Piero Zone" (Zona Del Piero in Italian) because he scored so many goals this way.

Goal Celebrations

Later in his career, after scoring a goal, Del Piero often celebrated by running to the fans with his arms outstretched and sticking out his tongue, similar to basketball star Michael Jordan. He would also leap into the air with a raised fist or slide on his knees while cheering to the crowd. Sometimes, he would point to the sky to dedicate a goal to his late father.
