Federico Pisani (25 July 1974 – 12 February 1997) was an Italian professional footballer who played for Atalanta and Monza. Pisani died in a car crash on 12 February 1997,[1] and his squad number (#14) was retired as a mark of respect.
Career
Pisani began playing for Atalanta's youth team and after a few years joined the Margine Coperta, a satellite club of Atalanta. Returning to Bergamo, he made his debut in Serie A in 17 years. In the spring he was coached by Cesare Prandelli and often used as a substitute.[2]: 362
Pisani died in a car accident with his BMW 320 convertible in the company of his girlfriend Alessandra Midali (who also died in the accident)[3] and two friends (who were uninjured) on February 12, 1997. Pisani was returning home after an evening at the casinò di Campione d'Italia.[4]
Following the death of Pisani, Atalanta decided to retire the number 14 jersey. In his short Serie A career he made 44 appearances and scored five goals.
