Description 
Thiago Motta (born 28 August 1982) is a professional football manager and former player. He is currently the head coach of Serie A club Juventus.
A midfielder, Motta spent his early career at Barcelona, where he was injury-prone. He played two and a half seasons with Inter Milan before joining Paris Saint-Germain in January 2012, winning 27 major titles all clubs combined. Motta also had brief spells with Atlético Madrid in Spain, and Genoa in Italy.
Born in Brazil, Motta also holds Italian citizenship.

He appeared at the 2014 FIFA World Cup and two European Championships with Italy, finishing second at Euro 2012.
Following his retirement in 2018, he coached the under-19 side of Paris Saint-Germain. In October 2019, he was appointed as Genoa's new manager, being fired in December following a poor run of results.
In July 2021, Motta was appointed as Spezia Calcio manager, where he remained for one season. He then took over as manager of Bologna in September 2022.
