Rodolfo Jorge De Paoli (born 26 October 1978) is an Argentine football manager and former player who played as a midfielder.

De Paoli was also a journalist and a narrator, notably being the main voice for Argentine-based version of the Pro Evolution Soccer series in the 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 editions.

Playing career[edit]

Born in Buenos Aires, De Paoli began his career with Nueva Chicago, and subsequently represented Banfield before moving to Mexico and Ecuador.[1][2]

Upon returning to his home country, De Paoli represented El Porvenir before retiring at the age of just 22 in 2000.[1]

Managerial career[edit]

In May 2007, De Paoli was named manager of Deportivo Riestra.[3] He was subsequently in charge of Argentino de Merlo and Dock Sud before leaving the latter in 2009 to dedicate himself to becoming a full-time narrator.[4]

On 19 October 2011, De Paoli returned to managerial duties after taking over Liniers.[5] He resigned the following 11 March, after suffering four consecutive defeats.[6]

In April 2015, De Paoli was invited by manager José Oscar Flores to take part of his coaching staff at Defensa y Justicia.[7] On 21 November 2017, he agreed to return to coaching duties after being appointed at Real Pilar,[8] but announced his departure from the club the following 2 June.[9]

On 23 September 2019, after more than a year without coaching, De Paoli was named manager of his first side Nueva Chicago.[10] He resigned the following 3 March, with the club in the last position.[11]

On 26 January 2021, De Paoli was appointed Barracas Central manager.[12] In December, he helped the club to achieve promotion to the Primera División after a 87-year absence.[13]

De Paoli resigned from Barracas on 21 February 2022, but returned to the club with Alejandro Milano on 15 August. The following 11 April, the duo left on a mutual agreement.[14]

On 24 November 2023, De Paoli replaced Alfredo Berti at the helm of Independiente Rivadavia, newly-promoted to the top tier.[15]

Personal life[edit]

In August 2017, De Paoli was announced as the main narrator of the Argentine-based version of the Pro Evolution Soccer series, starting in the 2018 edition.[16]
