With a style that spurned the traditional Italian caution of catenaccio, in 1994 Milan routed a great F.C. Barcelona team 4-0 to win the European Cup. Although A.C. Milan surrendered the Serie A title in 1995 - finishing a disappointing fourth - Capello signed off from his six-year stint with the Rossineri by regaining the league championship the following year.

He switched to A.S. Roma, winning the 2001 scudetto, or the championship of Serie A. Having guided A.S. Roma to its first honours in a decade, he left the debt-ridden club for Juventus, where he had played as a winger.
