Bruno Labbadia (pronounced [labbaˈdiːa]; born 8 February 1966) is a retired German footballer of Italian heritage. He has been the manager of several German clubs and most recently managed Hamburger SV.

In an illustrious career, Labbadia recorded 103 goals in 328 league games having played for some of Germany's top Bundesliga clubs. He had two caps for the Germany national football team.

Labbadia was hired as Greuther Fürth's manager on 19 March 2007. Labbadia officially took over on 1 July 2007 when pre-season officially started. He left the club on 26 May 2008 when he officially joined Bayer Leverkusen.

Labbadia was hired by Bayer Leverkusen on 26 May 2008.

Labaddia took over as Hamburger SV manager on 1 July 2009. Labbadia was dismissed on 26 April 2010, just three days before the Europa League semi-final second-leg tie against Fulham.

On 12 December 2010 Labbadia became the new head coach of VfB Stuttgart. In his first season with the club, he managed to save the club that was staring relegation in the face after the disastrous reigns of his two predecessors, Christian Gross and Jens Keller, ended in the last quarter of 2010. VfB Stuttgart finished in 12th place in the 2010–11 Bundesliga, and would then qualify for the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League by virtue of its sixth position in the 2011–12 Bundesliga.
