Calcio Foggia 1920 got promoted to Serie A in 1991 after becoming champions of the Serie B in the 1990-91 season. Foggia’s 1991-92 season in Serie A was a memorable one under the guidance of Czech coach Zdeněk Zeman. The team became known for their high-intensity, attacking football, often referred to as “Zemanlandia.” Despite being a relatively small club, Foggia impressed with their fearless style of play and finished 9th in the league. Key players included the attacking trio of Francesco Baiano, Giuseppe Signori, and Roberto Rambaudi, who combined for one of the most exciting forward lines in Italy. Foggia earned admiration for challenging bigger clubs with their entertaining and offensive approach.
With attractive attacking football, Foggia became a mid-table club for three consecutive seasons. In 1995, their fourth Serie A season resulted in the relegation to Serie B. The club is currently active in Serie C.
Alessandro Porro and Gianluca Musumeci are two former Italian midfielders. They played for multiple lower tier Italian teams.
