About Fabio Capello:

Following in the footsteps of his father and uncle in becoming a professional footballer, Fabio Capello went on to surpass the careers of both family members by winning 32 caps for Italy and scoring 8 goals. A four time Scuddetto winner with Juventus and AC Milan as a player, Capello was a classy attacking midfielder who made his mark during the late 1960s and 1970s for some of Italian football's biggest clubs.

Capello's first major coaching job was at one of his old clubs, AC Milan, and he quickly built a reputation as a master tactician. Winning four Scuddetto's in five years in the early 1990s with a team consisting of such legendary names as Franco Baresi, Paolo Maldini, Ruud Gullit and Marco Van Basten, Capello's Milan side became known as "the invincibles" for going a whole Serie A season without defeat. A 4-0 destruction of Barcelona in the 1994 European Cup final was probably this Milan side's finest hour and after winning their fourth Scuddetto under Capello in 1995/96 the Italian went looking for a new challenge as head coach of Real Madrid.

In the first of what was to become two spells as head coach of Real Madrid, Capello brought the Spanish La Liga title to the Santiago Bernabeu and was promptly sacked and replaced by the German Jupp Heynckes. Capello subsequently returned to AC Milan but his second spell was much less successful with the Milanese club in a period of transition.

In 1999, Capello took over as head coach of another of his former playing clubs, AS Roma. Two years later he led the club to the Scuddetto title, their first major honour for over a decade, but when relations soured between Capello and Roma's golden boy Francesco Totti and results began to slide it was again time to move on, yet again to another of his former clubs, this time Juventus.

On the surface, Capello's time in charge of Juventus was successful with two Scuddetto's to show for it but both titles were stripped following the match fixing scandal which saw the club ultimately demoted to Serie B. Capello resigned in the midst of the furore and went back to Real Madrid for one more title winning season which again finished in the sack, history repeating itself again in the most brutal fashion.

When Steve McLaren left the England job after failing to qualify for Euro 2008, Fabio Capello made himself available and with his glittering CV and reputation as a disciplinarian, the English FA quickly tied him up to a £6.5m/year four year deal.

Ini dia pelatih yang dijuluki "Golden Coach". Terlalu sering dia membawa tim yang dipegangnya menjadi juara di tahun pertama dia latih.
