Pedro Antonio Troglio (born 28 July 1965) is an Argentinefootball manager and former player who played as amidfielder. He is the current manager ofInstituto.
During his career as a footballer, Troglio played forRiver Plate, as well as at the1990 FIFA World Cup withArgentina, where he scored a goal against theUSSR.
He then spent the main part of his career in Italy, playing four seasons inSerie A (forHellas Verona,Lazio andAscoli) and two inSerie B.
During the final years of his career, Troglio played forGimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata andVilla Dálmine (a fourth division team where he played alongside fellow veteransJosé Basualdo,Roberto Monserrat,Mario Pobersnik andRaúl "Pacha" Cardozo).
Troglio then went on to coachGodoy Cruz de Mendoza inPrimera B Nacional but he left in the middle of the tournament to take on in March 2005 a demoralized Gimnasia and helped keep the team in thePrimera.[1] The next season, he led them to 2nd place in theApertura tournament, equalling their highest finish ever.
In June 2006 his #21 jersey was retired inGimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata, being this the first number ever retired in an Argentine football club.
After the successful 2005 campaign, Gimnasia has performance declined markedly. Following a series of defeats in national and international competitions, including a 7:0 derby defeat toEstudiantes de La Plata, Troglio resigned in April 2007, and was temporarily replaced with former aideRicardo Kuzemka. Nevertheless, Troglio's status with fans did not deteriorate strongly, with most press articles blaming club presidentJuan José Muñoz on the poor performances of the team.
In 2007, afterJorge Burruchaga's departure ofIndependiente, Troglio was hired to manage this institution. In March 2008, after an erratic season start, Troglio was sacked and replaced by Miguel Angel Santoro.
In 2009, he won the campeonato Apertura with Cerro Porteño. On 30 May 2010Argentinos Juniors hired the formerCerro Porteno coach to replaceClaudio Borghi.[2]
He stepped down as manager of Argentinos on 18 September 2011 after a bad start to the2011–12 Apertura.[3]
In 2019 he agreed to move to Honduras to manageCD Olimpia, the club with most titles in the country. He arrived to a team experiencing a 6-tournament drought, having won their last title in the2015–16 Clausura. In 2019 Pedro and his team won the2019–20 Clausura, ending a three-and-a-half-year stretch without winning the cup.
On June 2, 2022, he re-signed with former clubCD Olimpia after a short period with Argentine clubSan Lorenzo.
