Happy birthday, Paolo Orlandoni! | OneFootball

A life lived in Nerazzurro, whose story continues to develop new chapters: Paolo Orlandoni has Inter stitched into him, having worn the Club’s colours in three different roles and helping to write some of the most successful pages in Inter’s history.

Orlandoni joined Inter as a youngster, entering the Club’s youth academy in 1986, before returning in 2005 as third-choice goalkeeper. His First Team adventure lasted seven seasons, during which he made six appearances and won five Scudetti, three Coppa Italia titles, four Italian Super Cups, one Champions League and one FIFA Club World Cup.

His deep connection with Inter led him to pursue a career as a goalkeeping coach after hanging up his gloves. His first role, from 2012 to 2015, was with the Nerazzurri Primavera, where he returned in 2019. In 2025, a new chapter began as part of Cristian Chivu’s staff, taking on the role of First Team goalkeeping coach: a first season that ended in triumph, with the Scudetto and Coppa Italia.

An Inter man who has always combined expertise, professionalism and dedication with an infectious smile: born in Bolzano on 12 August 1972, Paolo Orlandoni turns 54 today, and the Club and the entire Nerazzurri family wish him a very happy birthday!
