Denis Tonucci (born 6 September 1988) is an Italian footballer who plays for Serie B club Bari.
Born in Pesaro, the Marche region (border the Province of Rimini, Romagna), Tonucci started his professional career at Romagna side Cesena, which he had spent there since Giovanissimi B under-14 team. Tonucci made his Serie B debut on 3 March 2007, substituted Luigi Pagliuca in the 63rd minute. The team already losing to Bologna 1–3 and 2 players were already sent off at that time. The match eventually ended in 1–4. After Cesena relegated to the Lega Pro 1st Division in 2008, (Italian 3rd highest level) he played 12 times for the Group A champion, winning promotion back to Serie B. Tonucci also remained at Primavera under-20 youth team as overage player which the team changed to play at Berretti League and the 2007–08 Primavera team merged with Cesena's 2007–08 Berretti team.
On 10 August 2009, he was loaned to fellow Serie B team Piacenza with option to buy him outright.
On 30 June 2010, Tonucci along with Luca Righini were signed by Serie B side Vicenza in co-ownership deal for €1.3 million and €450,000 respectively, in 4-year contract, while Serie A newcomer Cesena signed Giacomo Tulli and Mattia Evangelisti in another co-ownership deal for the same fee. However, only Tonucci and Tulli remains in the top two levels of Italy, which both players remained in Vicenza for 2010–11 and 2011–12 season. Righini and Evangelisti left for Lega Pro teams. Cesena did not use either one of the players, however Cesena benefited financially in 2009–10 financial year and heavy cost in future seasons. Tonucci only played 10 times in 2010–11 Serie B.
