Del Neri made his professional debut as player at the age of 16 for Spal, Ferrara's football team, for which he had worked as storer. After playing for Foggia and Novara, he moved to Udinese, with whom he gained promotion to Serie A, Italy's top division. He was later traded to Sampdoria, and then to Lanerossi Vicenza, Siena, Pro Gorizia and Opitergina, an amateur team from Oderzo, where he ended his playing career at 34.

After his retirement as a player, Del Neri stayed at Oderzo, appointed by chairman Ettore Setten (now owner of Treviso) as head coach. In 1986 he signed for Serie D team Pro Gorizia. He then coached Partinicaudace, a minor Sicilian Serie D team, in 1989, Teramo, Ravenna, Novara and Nocerina of Serie C2; with this last team he won the league and promotion to Serie C1. He then moved to Ternana of Serie C2, guiding it to Serie B after two consecutive promotions.

In 1998, after his second consecutive promotion, he was signed by Empoli of Serie A, but was fired before starting the championship, and was then recalled by his former team Ternana at the Serie B level.

In 2000 he signed with Chievo Verona of Serie B, a team representing a small quarter of Verona. It was the beginning of the so-called "Chievo miracle", in which the team was promoted to Serie A and then even qualified for the UEFA Cup in its first season at the highest level of Italian football.

In the summer of 2004, Del Neri was signed by Champions' League holders FC Porto, but, as with Empoli, was fired before making his debut. He maintained that he wanted to return to Italy for personal reasons. Signed in October 2004 by AS Roma, replacing Rudi Völler, he in turn left this position in March 2005 after a dismaying series of defeats, which were regarded as only partially the fault of Del Neri.

In mid-2005 he accepted the offer of US Palermo to coach the Sicilian team, which had also qualified for the UEFA Cup. After a good beginning, including a surprising 3–2 win against Inter Milan and qualification to the UEFA Cup group stages, the team started producing poor results, slowly losing position in the Serie A table. After a 3–1 defeat at home against Siena, Del Neri was fired on January 28, 2006.

On October 16, 2006, Del Neri returned to coach Chievo Verona, replacing Giuseppe Pillon. Despite a good start, he did not manage to save his side from relegation, losing a spot in the following season's Serie A with a dramatic 2–0 loss to Catania on the final match day. Following the relegation, Del Neri announced he was going to leave Chievo. He was announced as new Atalanta boss in June 2007. After two seasons in Bergamo he left to take over at Sampdoria on June 1, 2009.

Of course, the big poll question if you have to open this thread, Mark, is will he last longer at Juve than he did at Porto. :cry:

    We must give the man two seasons. I've been always against this guy, but Juve need to give him that before drawing any conclusions. The last man to get two complete seasons was Fabio Capello pre-calciopoli. Damn, even Ancelotti had more than two seasons.

    Good luck to the old man and Juve.

    not my or anyone else's first choice...but we could have done much worse. So...I will offer him my complete support, and hope that him and marotta can weave their magic on a grander scale than they have done at Samp.

    And we should ALL note, that despite qualifying Samp for the champions league they are coming to us. WHy??? Because they both MUST feel that they can take us significantly higher than they have taken Samp...and though that is of course open to debate, I will choose to hold onto it, and hope and expect a far brighter future than our recent dark past and present. Forza Marotta, Forza Del Neri and Forza Juve...

    This is BS!!!!!

    He couldn't help roma in 2005 and ran away from them when they were at a low, which idiotic brain at the juve board, thought he'd help us out from our crises?

    expect him to go by Christmas

    So, is he the strict disciplinarian that we seem to have needed for a while now? I'm not sure, but he did leave Cassano out of the team for a number of games (not even calling him up iirc) a few months ago, so that does at least give me some hope.

    I must say I'm surprised that we have dealt with this matter so quickly, considering the season only ended yesterday. So at least Del Neri will have a lot of time to carry out the necessary preparations and Marotta (or whoever) will have plenty of time to go out & get the reinforcements based on what Del Neri wants/needs.
