Mirko Pieri (born 24 July 1978) is an Italian football manager and former player, who played as a defender or midfielder.
Pieri joined Sampdoria in July 2006 along with Fabio Quagliarella, as part of the deal to sign Salvatore Foti. In June 2008 Sampdoria acquired Pieri outright.
Pieri was then signed by Livorno in July 2009 for €300,000.
Pieri had a trial at the English Football League Championship club Middlesbrough F.C. in 2010, but Boro boss Gordon Strachan stated on the club's official website that Pieri will not be offered a deal.
Primarily a left-sided attacking full-back or wing-back, Pieri was also capable of playing in a more advanced midfield role as a winger, on either flank, due to his dynamism, work-rate, energy, and tactical versatility, and was effective both offensively and defensively.
