Marco Simone (born 7 January 1969, in Castellanza) is an Italian former professional footballer, who played as a striker or winger. He most prominently played for A.C. Milan, with whom he won four Italian Serie A championships and two UEFA Champions League titles, as well as French clubs Paris Saint-Germain and AS Monaco. Simone played four games for the Italian national team.

As a manager, Simone, has also served as the head coach of Monaco in the French Ligue 2, and Lausanne-Sport.

Simone debuted in the Italian Serie A championship for Como on 11 January 1987. After a few appearances in the top-flight Serie A, he was put on loan at Virescit Boccaleone in the secondary Serie C1 league. He scored 15 goals for Virescit in the 1987–88 season, and finished as top scorer of the Serie C1 league.

He returned to Como for the 1988–89 Serie A season, in which he scored 6 goals. Como finished dead last in the tournament, and was relegated to Serie B.

In the summer of 1989, Simone was brought into the squad of third-place finishers A.C. Milan by manager Arrigo Sacchi. His stay at Milan would be long and successful, as he won the 1990 European Cup under manager Sacchi, as well as four Serie A titles in five years from 1992 to 1996 and the 1994 UEFA Champions League under the management of Fabio Capello.
