Fabio Capello was destined to become a football player. His father, a schoolteacher, played football, and Uncle Mario did his career in this field. He started playing in the unknown "Pieris", but very soon a talented football player was spotted in "Roma", after which the player signed his first professional contract in life.
After two seasons in the capital club, Fabio moved to Turin Juventus, and after - to Milan, with which he won domestic titles - the championship and the Italian Cup. In parallel, the footballer was called into the national team, which, however, did not gain any achievements. "Milan" was the last club of Fabio Capello as a player, in 1979 he retired.
In order to become a player from a player, it took 8 years. It was through such a time span that Capello returned to the world of football, and, ironically, it was the same "Milan". Moreover, in addition to the Spanish "Grand", Madrid "Real", he coached at the club level the same trio, which he once played - "Milan", "Roma" and "Juventus". As a coach, Fabio Capello produced far more trophies. This and the numerous championships in the Serie A, and the cups of Italy, and the championship in Spain, and the UEFA Super Cup, and the most important club European trophy - the Champions League. By the way, there are a lot of skeptical opinions about this number of achievements. They are all reduced to the fact that to train Fabio Capello only known clubs - the grandees of European football. As you know, such employers often meet the requirements of the coach regarding the purchase of a particular player whom the coach wants to see in the team. Naturally, with high-class players to obtain trophies easier, and the merit of Don Fabio in their winnings, according to skeptics, is minimal. On the other hand, the history of football only in recent years knows dozens of examples when big money appeared in clubs, they were bought by expensive players, they invited the coach "with a name", and the teams, as a result, not only did not shine, they showed mediocre results - the same as clubs, the middle peasants with a budget of a dozen times less.
But back to Fabio Capello. His biography is very uncommon, like the character himself. Quite a few interesting facts are known about the life of this great human football in the world: it is also the unwillingness to conclude a contract with an agent (with the documentation of Don Fabio, his son, Pierre Filippo, who has a law degree), and his addiction to Leo Tolstoy's creativity, and a peculiar way of communicating with Players, which allowed him to become a truly great coach.
From 2008 to 2012, the coach headed the England national football team, but last year fate prepared a new challenge for Fabio Capello. Russia has high hopes for a new eminent coach, and there are all the prerequisites for the hope that these hopes will be justified. It so happened that all the teams that he had to train, have a high rank, whether it's a club or a team. Team Russia so far does not apply to those and with a stretch, but for some reason it is believed that this project will not become a fly in the dribs in the coach of Capello, which means the team is waiting for success.
