Vittorio Staccione (9 April 1904 â 16 March 1945) was an Italian professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Staccione was born in Turin; his younger brother, Eugenio was also a professional footballer. His wife, Giulia, died in 1930 following the complications from the delivery of a stillborn child.
In his youth, Mazzoni played for Torino.
In his senior career, Staccione played for Torino (1924âÂÂ1927), Cremonese (on loan from Torino during the 1924âÂÂ25 season), Fiorentina (1927âÂÂ1931), Cosenza (1931âÂÂ1934), and Savoia (1934âÂÂ1935).
During his time at Torino, he contributed to winning the 1926âÂÂ27 Divisione Nazionale which was later stripped following allegations of bribery.
After retiring from football, Staccione worked as a labourer for Fiat.
Staccione was a noted anti-fascist. During his time at Savoia, he was regularly accosted by fascist personnel. He was arrested by the SS in March 1944 and died at the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp in March 1945.
In 2012, he was inducted into ACF Fiorentina Hall of Fame.
