Pierluigi Consonni (14 January 1949 – 24 March 2020) was an Italian professional footballer who played as a defender.

Career[edit]

Consonni grew up with Ponte San Pietro, where he made his debut in the regional championships and later in Serie D, a category in which he also played in the 1970-1971 season with the Trevigliese.

After a year with Derthona in Serie C, he moved to Bari where he played two championships in Serie B, totaling 65 appearances among cadets, and three more in Serie C.[1][2]

He then played in Serie C with Salernitana and ended his career in 1980, playing with Pergocrema.[3][4][5]

He died in his native Ponte San Pietro on 24 March 2020, aged 71, after contracting COVID-19 during the pandemic in Italy.[6][7][8] Five days earlier Innocenzo Donina, also a former Bari player and also from the province of Bergamo, had succumbed to the same illness.[9][10][11]
