Playing career
As a player, De Paola was compared to Italian international Gennaro Gattuso, who was also a defensive midfielder.[1]
Upon signing for Cagliari Calcio in 1988, De Paola was interviewed by Guerin Sportivo, where the author wrote that he voted for the Italian Communist Party in the early 1980s.[2] When he joined S.S. Lazio in 1993, a journalist re-published the interview and labelled him a communist. As a result, he was blamed for the team's problems and was eventually forced to leave due to pressure from the club's supporters.[3]
After retirement, De Paola claimed that he had never talked about politics in any interview[4] and was never interested in it.[5]
Coaching career
De Paola mostly worked as head coach in the minor leagues of Northern Italy. His most recent, in charge of Serie C club Pergolettese, ended on 13 April 2021 after he was sacked due to poor results.[6] On 25 November 2021, he was hired as new head coach of Lecco.[7] He rescinded his contract with Lecco on 11 May 2022, a few days after the end of the season.[8]
