Eraldo Pecci

Eraldo Pecci is exactly the kind of football lifer I admire. A midfielder turned coach who later reinvented himself as a writer and pundit, he embodies the idea that the players who think hardest on the pitch often have the most interesting things to say off it. At 172 cm he was never an imposing physical presence, which tells me his game was built on reading space and timing rather than power. Born in 1955 near Rimini, he represents a generation of thoughtful Italian footballers. I find his second act, swapping the boots for the pen, genuinely compelling.
