Eugenio Bersellini (10 June 1936 – 17 September 2017) was an Italian football player and manager.[5][6]

He was nicknamed Il sergente di ferro ("The iron sergeant") because of the very hard training sessions he used to impose on his players.[5]

He coached the Inter Milan side that won the 1979–80 Serie A title and the Sampdoria that won their first ever piece of silverware, the 1984–85 Coppa Italia.[1]

Managerial career

[edit]

Bersellini started his career as a manager at Lecce, having last played for the same club.[6] His first job in Serie A was in 1973, when he managed Cesena.[7] He remained there until 1975, then he moved to manage Sampdoria.[7]

In 1977, he moved to Inter Milan, which represented the most decorated part of his managing career.[1] In his first season, Inter won the 1977–78 Coppa Italia.[1] In the 1979–80 season, Bersellini guided Inter to their twelfth Serie A title.[8] He won another Coppa Italia for the Nerazzurri in the 1981–82 season.[1]

He was one of the first to change the training methods and employ fitness staff, which was not common at the time.[9]
