Aldo Bet (Italian pronunciation: [ˈaldo ˈbɛt]; 26 March 1949 – 12 November 2023) was an Italian professional footballer who played as a defender. An old-fashioned stopper, he was a sturdy and physically imposing defender, who was known for his tenacious man marking of opposing players.[1]
Career
[edit]An Inter Milan youth product, Bet was later promoted to the senior squad, before manager Helenio Herrera brought him to Roma, where he made his breakthrough, winning a Coppa Italia, and also earning a call-up to play for the Italy national team. After five seasons with Roma, and one with Verona, he joined AC Milan in the summer of 1974. He was usually paired alongside a sweeper in the team's defence: first Maurizio Turone, and later a young Franco Baresi; he won a second Coppa Italia with Milan, and was a member of the team that won club's tenth league title in 1979.[1]
Death
[edit]Bet died in Varese on 12 November 2023, at the age of 74.[2]
