Luca Toni Football player
Luca Toni, Ufficiale OMRI (Italian pronunciation: [ˈluːka ˈtɔːni]; born 26 May 1977 in Pavullo nel Frignano) is an Italian footballer who currently plays for Verona. He had successful spells at top clubs such as Palermo, Fiorentina, Bayern Munich, and Roma, as well as a short stint at Juventus. Toni has also represented the Italian national team, most notably winning the 2006 World Cup. A composed finisher and an accurate penalty taker, Toni is highly regarded for his goal scoring ability, as can be seen by his prolific goals to games ratio at many of his clubs.His physical, opportunistic, goal-poaching style of play is at times considered unorthodox, although he is also capable of holding up the ball for team-mates when playing with his back to goal. His strength, aerial prowess, and power have seen him become one of the best ever headers of the ball in the Italian League. As well as the medals he has collected, he has also won several individual honours, including the Capocannonieri for the 2005–06 season in which he scored 31 goals (the most goals in a Serie A season since 1958–59), as well as finishing topscorer with 24 goals in the 2007–08 Bundesliga.
