Of those 78, only 6 players have managed to win at least 3 Scudetti with 3 different teams. An extremely exclusive club that has not welcomed any new members since 2000.
Attilio Lombardo (1 Sampdoria, 1 Juventus, 1 Lazio)
The last to do it was Attilio Lombardo, a right winger blessed with great pace. Lombardo won his first Scudetto with Sampdoria, as a starter, in 1990/91, then repeated the feat with Juventus in 1996/97, his final year with the Bianconeri, when he played the role of super-sub.
The third trophy came with Lazio in 1999/00, but as a substitute, with 10 appearances and one goal.
Aldo Serena (1 Juventus, 1 Inter, 2 Milan)
Before him, centre-forward Aldo Serena had also managed it. He actually won 4 Scudetti: the first with Juventus in 1985/86 as a key player (11 goals that season), then he triumphed with Inter in 1988/89 (top scorer with 22 goals), and later with Milan in 1991/92, though as a backup, making only 9 appearances and scoring 0 goals. Serena also won the title again the following year with Milan, taking his total to 4 league championships.
Pietro Fanna (3 Juventus, 1 Verona, 1 Inter)
Looking back to the 1970s and 1980s, Pietro (Pierino) Fanna won 5 Scudetti in his career. Fanna joined Juventus from Atalanta at 19 and won the Scudetto at the first attempt, even though he was used only 13 times and often out of position compared to his natural role as a right winger. Fanna then became decisive in Juventus’ next two title wins.
In the following years he became a key player for Hellas Verona, who won the Italian title in 1984/85, and then won the league again in 1988/89 with Inter, without being a central figure in the squad.
Sergio Gori (2 Inter, 1 Cagliari, 1 Juventus)
More than 10 years earlier, striker Sergio Gori had also done it with Inter, Cagliari and Juventus. He won his first two Scudetti in his very first years as a professional with Herrera’s “Grande Inter”: from 1964 to 1966, he made very few appearances but still scored one goal in each season.
After that, he moved to Cagliari in the deal that took Boninsegna to the Nerazzurri. Alongside Riva and his teammates, he won the league as a starter with the Sardinian club in 1970. He repeated the feat, though again in a supporting role, with Juventus in 1977.
Filippo Cavalli (1 Torino, 2 Juventus, 1 Inter)
To find the 2nd player in chronological order, we have to go back to the 1940s and 1950s: Filippo Cavalli was in fact the backup goalkeeper of the Grande Torino in the title-winning 1943 season.
After the league resumed following World War II, he filled the same role at Juve, with whom he won two championships in 1949/50 and 1951/52. His last success came with Inter in 1953/54, even though he did not play a single match that season.
Giovanni Ferrari (5 Juventus, 2 Inter, 1 Bologna)
The first player to win a league title with three different clubs was Giovanni Ferrari: an attacking midfielder and one of the best Italian players of the pre-war era. The run of triumphs began with the 1930/31 Scudetto with Juventus, the first of five straight league titles in which he was an absolute protagonist and driving force.
Ferrari then moved to Ambrosiana-Inter, where he won two more Scudetti in 1937/38 and 1939/40: in the first year he was an important player, while in the second he featured less often.
His final success (and eighth league title, in addition to two World Cups) came with Bologna in 1940/41: a crucial presence despite missing several matches through injury. Ferrari still brought the right experience to help Bologna win the last Scudetto of their golden era in the 1930s and 1940s.
