Franco Superchi (born 1 September 1944 in Allumiere) is a retired Italian professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Career
Superchi played for 13 seasons in the Italian Serie A for ACF Fiorentina, Hellas Verona F.C. and A.S. Roma.
During his first three seasons with ACF Fiorentina he was the third-choice goalkeeper and did not play any league games in the first two. In his fourth, the 1968–69 season, Fiorentina won the Italian championship, and the impressive performances by the rookie were integral to the team's success. He played seven more seasons for Fiorentina, never equalling the brilliance of the championship season, but always proving to be a reliable shot-stopper.
He later served as Roma's backup goalkeeper for four seasons in the 1980s, and played only on one occasion, a few minutes as a substitute in the last game of the 1982–83 season, during which Roma won the Serie A title, the second Italian championship title of his career.
