Flavio Destro (Italian pronunciation: [ˈflaːvjo ˈdɛstro]; born 28 August 1962) is an Italian football manager and former player, who played as a defender.

Destro began his youth career at local club Torino, where he played for their Allievi and Primavera side.

After spending five years with the Granata, Destro signed his first professional contract with Serie C1 club Reggina. In his only season with the Amaranto, he made 19 appearances and scored 1 goal.

At the end of the 1981–82 season, he moved to Rondinella and managed 30 appearances and would again score one goal.

Destro then spent two seasons at Catanzaro, where he managed 60 appearances and a single goal.

He signed for Ascoli in 1985 and departed the club in 1990. In five seasons at Ascoli, Destro managed 142 appearances and scored 2 goals. His first goal for Ascoli came on 14 February 1988 at home against Milan in Serie A.^[2] The Rossoneri then equalised through Daniele Massaro to make it honours even.

A single season at Pescara was followed by a two-year spell with Cesena. Before hanging up his boots forever, the veteran defender spent one last season at Empoli, where he played 18 times without registering a goal.

Following his retirement from football, Destro then pursued a career in coaching football. He currently lives in Ascoli Piceno, the birthplace of his son.

Destro managed Lega Pro Seconda Divisione club Montichiari in 2008. He was then made assistant manager at both Crotone in (2009–10), and Torino in (2010–11).
