Gianni Vio (born 6 April 1953) is an Italian football coach who is currently a set piece coach at Championship club Watford.[1] He was previously employed as the set piece coach of Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, leaving in the summer of 2023.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Previously, Vio often worked with former Italy and Inter Milan player Walter Zenga, when he was in charge at clubs such as Catania, Palermo and Cagliari.[1]
During his time at Catania, Vio earned the nickname 'the little wizard' as 17 of the team's 44 goals that season came from set pieces.[1]
