Massimo Carrera (born 22 April 1964 in Sesto San Giovanni) is an Italian association football manager and a former player, who played as a defender. He is the manager of FC Spartak Moscow in Russia.
He is nicknamed "la bandera". He was a caretaker manager of Juventus, due to head coach Antonio Conte's 10-month ban (later reduced to 4 months), effective from August 2012.
Carrera began his career at Pro Sesto, but rose to fame with Bari enjoying five seasons before moving to Juventus in 1991. Under Giovanni Trapattoni he was deployed at right back, a role also held at Bari. He disputed an excellent first season, culminating with being called up for the Italian national team.
In 1994 with the arrival of Marcello Lippi he is deployed as sweeper, in place of Luca Fusi, becoming a pillar of the team, winning both the Scudetto and the Italian Cup. He also lifts the UEFA Cup at the end of the season.
Due to the arrival of skilled defenders Pietro Vierchowod and Paolo Montero, on the following seasons he starts more often from the bench, but offers valued contribution when called.
