Roberto Cravero

Between 1981-98, sweeper Roberto Cravero spent most of his career with Torino, apart from a two year loan spell at Cesena in the mid-1980s, and between 1992-95, when he played for Lazio. Cravero was captain of Torino for many years and his only domestic success came in 1990 when he led them to the Serie B title. He finished second in Serie A in 1995, during his spell at Lazio.

At international level, Cravero never played for the full Italian team, but did win 12 under-21 caps, and also played in 12 Olympic matches, including two at the 1988 Olympics. After a poor second game against Zambia at Seoul, he was relegated to the bench and, following criticism of coach Francesco Rocca, Cravero’s Olympic career came to an end.
