Massimo Carrera Career

Club career

Carrera began his career at Pro Sesto but rose to fame with Bari, spending five seasons with the club before moving to Juventus in 1991. He was deployed right back, under boss Giovanni Tratoni, a position he had also held at Bari. He argued for a fruitful first season, culminating in his selection of Italy's national team. He won the UEFA Cup with the club in his second season.

Carrera was unwittingly instrumental in Milan's unbeaten run in the 1991–92 Serie A season. An innocent-looking cross from Carrera's head struck Carrera's head during Juventus' home match against Milan on September 15, 1991, and the ball looped past a stranded Stefano Tacconi for the crucial equalizer. Milan will then go on to win the season and open a new 58-match streak.

Marcello Lippi was sent as a sweeper in place of Luca Fusi and then as a central defender, establishing himself as a pillar of the team and winning both Serie A and Coppa Italia in 1995. Carrera also reached the UEFA Cup final at the end of the season.

Carrera began moving from the bench more often during the following season, but also provided valuable service when called upon.

He started with 166 caps with Juventus and gained Serie A, the Coppa Italia, the UEFA Champions League, and the UEFA Cup, in Atalanta, 1996.

Carrera was quickly promoted to captain and chief of the Orobici after eight seasons and scoring 207 caps and three goals. In 2003, he left Bergamo to join Napoli, and the following season, he settled in Treviso.

Carrera lived in Veneto for a season, but Pro Vercelli announced him on October 28, 2005, at the age of 41.

Carrera resigned from playing football to concentrate on coaching at the age of 44 at the 2007–08 season.

International career

Carrera's outstanding debuts with Juventus in his first year with the club earned him his first international call-up under new manager Arrigo Sacchi in 1991; Carrera's debut and first appearance with the Italy national team came against San Marino in Cesena in 1992.

Managerial career

Carrera was reunited with former Juventus teammates Antonio Conte and Angelo Alessio in the summer of 2011 when he joined the club's coaching staff as a technical director.

Carrera became Juventus' caretaker boss in July 2012 after a ten-month suspension against head coach Conte for suspected match fixing and a similar ban against his assistant Alessio. He claimed the 2012 Supercoppa Italiana over Beijing, defeating Napoli 4–2 after extra time in his first official match. Carrera returned to the position of technical director following Alessio's dismissal, bringing the bench to Alessio.

Carrera was recruited as an assistant manager for FC Spartak Moscow before the 2016–17 season. After Spartak's dismissal from the UEFA Europa League by AEK Larnaca, Dmitri Alenichev, the previous boss, was fired on August 5th. Carrera was appointed the caretaker boss. He was hired on a permanent basis by Spartak's boss on August 17, 2016, making his debut against Krasnodar, where red-whites defeated them 21-0 for their first victory 2–0. No other Spartak head coach started their careers as well as Carrera did: Spartak scored 28 of 36 points in the first twelve games under him. Spartak's first Russian Premier League title since 2001 under Carrera's leadership on May 7th. He committed his Spartak deal to 31 May 2019.

Despite being widely admired among the fans, he was forced to leave his position in late 2018 after a string of poor performances, prompting controversies. Many people, especially captain Denis Glushakov, was accused of both supporting the decision and calling for his dismissal from the team.

Carrera was appointed as the new manager of AEK Athens, a Super League Greece club.

After beating VfL Wolfsburg in the Play-off round for 2–1 at the Athens Olympic Stadium getting in the Group stage for the first time in the UEFA Europa League in the season 2020-21, Massimo Carrera succeeds to bring AEK Athens to qualify for the UEFA Europa League in the season 2020–21.

Carrera was hired as the new head coach of Bari's Serie C team on February 9-2021. Bari was relegated to third place after a last-minute home draw against Palermo on April 20, 2021.
