Marco Donadel (born 21 April 1983 in Conegliano, Province of Treviso, Italy) is an Italian football midfielder, currently playing for ACF Fiorentina.
Donadel is a youth product of A.C. Milan. He was loaned to Lecce, Parma, Sampdoria and Fiorentina. After a successful half-season long loan with Fiorentina, the Viola signed him on a permanent basis. In 2005-2006 he was a regular for coach Cesare Prandelli, who had already appreciated the skills of Donadel, as they were together at Parma F.C.
Marco Donadel was the captain of Italy under-21 team, and won the 2004 European Under-21 Football Championship. Donadel also won a bronze medal of 2004 Summer Olympics football tournament.
Marco Donadel is a champion for disabled people, as he himself has made it to the top of his sporting profession, despite the fact he has a cannon for a leg. Donadel in fact sees this as an attribute, saying recently "when you've got a cannon for a leg, most keepers are a little scared when they see you with the ball 30 yards out."
