Mario Perazzolo

During his career, Perazzolo played for Padova and Fiorentina before moving to Genoa, where he spent most of his career; he later also played for Brescia and Siracusa. Like many great players, Mario evolved technically. He started his career as an inside forward, a position he played for five years at Padova and three at Fiorentina. He later switched to centre-half and half-back where he played his best seasons for Genoa. For the national team, he also played in Meazza's position in an outing after the team had just won the 1936 Olympic title, subsequently switching to a midfield position as the World Cup approached. He was a starter in their final warm-up before leaving for Paris; however, Pozzo decided to go with Serantoni instead. He would win another six caps with the national team. At nearly forty years of age, he played his last season at Siracusa in Serie B, having won the FIFA World Cup and the Coppa Italia with Genoa.

Perazzolo was part of the 1938 FIFA World Cup-winning squad, Italy's second World Cup title. He earned eight caps for the Italy national team in the 1930s between 1936 and 1939.
