'''Marino Magrin''' (born 13 September 1959) is an Italian former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.
==Club career== Born in Borso del Grappa, Magrin began his career with Serie D Bassano Virtus in 1975. He moved to Montebelluna in 1978, where he remained for two seasons. In 1980, he moved to Serie C1 side Mantova, where he remained for one season before moving to newly relegated side Atalanta in 1981. His performances and leadership soon helped the club to achieve Serie A promotion, winning the Serie C title in 1982, and the Serie B title in 1984, in the process. Magrin made his Serie A debut with Atalanta during the 1984–85 season, and later helped the club to the Coppa Italia Final in 1987, where they were defeated by domestic double winners Napoli; in total, he scored 40 goals for Atalanta in 192 appearances.<ref name=calcionews24.com>{{cite web|url=http://www.calcionews24.com/marino-magrin-ho-difeso-il-mio-amore-per-il-10-437179.html|title=Marino Magrin, ho difeso il mio amore (per il 10)|publisher=Calcio News 24|language=Italian|author1=Simone Sacco|date=21 April 2015|accessdate=10 September 2015}}</ref><ref name=bergamo.corriere.it>{{cite web|url=http://bergamo.corriere.it/bergamo/notizie/sport/12_luglio_23/magrin-atalanta-riprendimi-bergamo-2011135083045.shtml?refresh_ce-cp|title=Il ritorno di Magrin: "Atalanta riprendimi"|publisher=Il Corriere della Sera|language=Italian|author1=Fabio Santini|date=22 July 2012|accessdate=10 September 2015}}</ref><ref name="52 candeline per Magrin">{{cite web|url=http://www.tuttoatalanta.com/auguri-a/52-candeline-per-magrin-l-anima-della-dea-anni-80-2181|title=52 candeline per Magrin.

Magrin was acquired by Juventus FC in 1987, as a replacement for Michel Platini in the midfield playmaker role, following the Frenchman's retirement, but decided not to take Platini's number 10 shirt (although he still occasionally wore the iconic jersey), as the club president Giampiero Boniperti advised him to take his own number 8 shirt instead, which had also previously belonged to Marco Tardelli, as a sign of respect and humility. Magrin himself was rather modest about his new role and brushed off comparisons with the Juventus legend.<ref name="52 candeline per Magrin"/><ref name=tuttojuve.com>{{cite web|url=http://www.tuttojuve.com/gli-eroi-bianconeri/gli-eroi-in-bianconero-marino-magrin-63347|title=Gli eroi in bianconero: Marino MAGRIN|publisher=Tutto Juve|language=Italian|author1=Stefano Bedeschi|date=19 September 2013|accessdate=10 September 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://archiviostorico.corriere.it/2013/giugno/28/chimera_Magrin_co_0_20130628_ad18c062-dfb2-11e2-b251-5f21c984fc54.shtml?refresh_ce-cp|title=La chimera di Magrin|trans-title=Magrin's Chimera|publisher=Il Corriere della Sera|language=Italian|author1=Simone Bianco|date=28 June 2013|accessdate=10 September 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lastampa.it/2012/06/23/sport/calcio/qui-juve/il-dopo-alex-la-maglia-che-scotta-zSUj0wMkbnPLg8K2gR95IP/pagina.html|title=Il 10 dopo Alex, la maglia che scotta|trans-title=The 10 after Alex, the number that burns|publisher=La Stampa|language=Italian|author1=Giancarlo Emanuel|date=23 June 2012|accessdate=3 January 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/serie-a/da-ferrari-a-bernardeschi-la-juve-e-l-importanza-della-maglia-numero-10-998150|title=Da Ferrari a Bernardeschi: la Juve e l'importanza della maglia numero 10|publisher=www.TuttoMercatoWeb.com|language=Italian|author1=Lorenzo Di Benedetto|date=24 July 2017|accessdate=24 July 2017}}</ref> The two seasons he spent with the club were not successful for Juventus, however, due to the club's post-Trapattoni crisis under new manager Rino Marchesi; although he often started in his first season, his second season saw him relegated to the bench with greater frequency, and he subsequently left for Hellas Verona F.C. in 1989. He spent three seasons with the club under manager Osvaldo Bagnoli, before moving back to Bassano Virtus, the club with which he began his career, in 1992, retiring in 1993, after one season.<ref name=calcionews24.com/><ref name="52 candeline per Magrin"/><ref name=tuttojuve.com/>
==International career== Although he never represented Italy at senior level, Magrin made 3 appearances for the Italian Olympic squad in 1987.<ref name=tuttoatalanta.com>{{cite web|url=http://www.tuttoatalanta.com/gli-eroi-della-dea/gli-eroi-della-dea-marino-magrin-9017|title=Gli Eroi della Dea: Marino MAGRIN|publisher=Tutto Atalanta|language=Italian|author1=Giuseppe Opromolla|date=23 April 2015|accessdate=10 September 2015}}</ref>
==Style of play== A creative, technically gifted, and hard-working, right-footed, advanced midfield playmaker, Magrin was usually deployed as an attacking midfielder, or as a winger or central midfielder, and was capable of both scoring and creating goals.<ref name="52 candeline per Magrin"/><ref name=tuttojuve.com/> Despite his talent in his youth, which even led Platini to say "he's better than me", his career was marked by inconsistency and he failed to live up to his initial potential.<ref name=bergamo.corriere.it/><ref name=tuttojuve.com/> Magrin was known in particular for being a penalty-kick specialist and for his incredible accuracy on set-pieces, as well as his use of the bending "knuckleball" technique on free kicks.<ref name=bergamo.corriere.it/><ref name=tuttojuve.com/>
== Personal life == Magrin's son, Michele, was also a professional footballer.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Premiata ditta punizioni Magrin - Video Dopo il padre Marino il figlio Michele|url=https://www.ecodibergamo.it/stories/Sport/premiata-ditta-punizioni-magrin-videodopo-il-padre-marino-il-figlio-michele_1236653_11/|access-date=2022-01-29|website=www.ecodibergamo.it|language=it}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web|date=2012-04-25|title=Magrin: "Sentire il mio inno?
