Career

edit

Born in Vassouras, Rio de Janeiro, Colucci played futsal professionally for Piraí, Mendes and Vassouras before joining Fluminense's futsal side for the 2003 season; as the regulation at the time only allowed him to play in the Copa Rio Sul de Futsal as a manager, he switched to his new role.[1]

Colucci subsequently worked as manager of futsal sides Vasco da Gama, Vassouras (where he won four consecutive Copa Rio Sul de Futsal titles), Piraí and Mendes.[1] In May 2015, he switched to football and was appointed manager of Volta Redonda's under-20 squad.[2]

Colucci returned to play for Mendes in the 2017 season,[1] while still working for Volta Redonda. In January 2018, he was named manager of futsal side Paulo de Frontin, also sharing roles with his Voltaço job.[3]

In May 2018, Colucci was appointed at the helm of Pérolas Negras in the Campeonato Carioca Série B2.[4] He subsequently returned to Volta Redonda and their under-20 squad, and also submitted a candidacy to the club's presidency late in the year; he later withdrew his candidacy.[5]

Colucci was promoted to the assistant manager role at Voltaço's first team squad in January 2020.[6] He left the club in September to take over Botafogo's under-17 squad,[7] but returned to his previous club on 27 October as manager of the main squad in the Série C.[8]

On 28 February 2022, Colucci was sacked by Voltaço.[9]

After a judicial decision issued by the Rio de Janeiro Court, Neto Colucci is facing criminal charges after having committed crimes against his family and now is considered a fugitive of the Justice.
