Guido Carboni (born 27 January 1963[1]) is an Italianfootballmanager most recently in charge ofOlbia and a formerplayer, who played as aforward.
He is the brother of formerItalian international footballerAmedeo Carboni, who also played forSampdoria,Roma, andValencia at club level as adefender.[2]
Carboni played mostly withTuscanSerie C1 andSerie C2 teams throughout his career in the role ofstriker, marking his professional footballing debut with hometown clubArezzo in 1980.[3] He then played also forMontevarchi,Empoli andSiena, and retired in 1997 to pursue a coaching career.
Carboni started his coaching career in 1998 withSerie D clubAglianese, leading his side to seventh place in the final standings. In 1999, he left Tuscany to coachSardinian Serie D sideOlbia, ending the season in fourteenth place.
In October 2000, he was surprisingly appointed byGenoa chairmanGianni Scerni to replaceBruno Bolchi at the helm of therossoblu in theSerie B. Carboni, lacking a valid coaching license for heading a Serie B club, guided the club jointly with veteran managerAlfredo Magni, but was sacked in January 2001 following a poor 17 points in 15 matches.
In 2001-2002, Carboni was appointed at the helm of ambitiousSerie C1 sidePisa, but failed to lead the club to a promotion spot, ending the season in a poor tenth place. He returned to Olbia the next season, but obtained an unimpressive fifteenth place in theSerie C2 table and escaped relegation only after the playoffs. In 2003, he moved back to Serie C1, atViterbese, obtaining a third place and allowing thegialloblu to gain a spot in the promotion playoff.
From 2004 to 2006, Carboni coachedBari in the Serie B, obtaining a twelfth and a thirteenth final place respectively. After Bari replaced him withRolando Maran during the summer, he started the 2006-07 season without a job, being appointed in February 2007 as the newCrotone boss following the dismissal ofElio Gustinetti in an attempt to avoid relegation, which later proved to be unsuccessful.[4] Following Crotone's relegation to Serie C1, Carboni left the Calabrian side, being later appointed at the helm of newly promoted Serie B sideAvellino on August 23, 2007,[5] being the third head coach signed by thebiancoverdi in the 2007-08 season following resignations byGiovanni Vavassori and successivelyMaurizio Sarri, all apparingly caused by disputes with the club management. He was sacked in March 2008 due to poor results.[6]
In April 2009 he was appointed to replaceElvio Selighini at the helm of relegation-battling Serie B sideRimini,[7] however failing to save his team from falling down to the lower tier after being defeated toAncona in the relegation playoffs.
On 25 April 2010,Frosinone announced that Carboni would be the new manager after a poor string of results led to the sacking ofFrancesco Moriero,[8] leading the club to safety. A poor start in the 2010–11 campaign however led to Carboni's own dismissal later in January 2011.[9]
On 20 November 2011 Carboni becomes the new coach ofEmpoli in place of the sackedGiuseppe Pillon,[10] until 12 February 2012 when he was sacked.
On 18 January 2013, he was named new coach ofBenevento.
In December 2015, he replacedGianluca Atzori as manager ofSiena.
On 13 November 2018 he was appointed head coach ofSerie C clubOlbia.[11] He was fired on 7 January 2019 and replaced by Michele Filippi.[12]
