Adriano Fedele (born 13 October 1947) is an Italian professional football coach and a former player who played as a defender or midfielder.

During the 1998–1999 season of Serie C1, while coaching Padova during a match against Varese on April 3, 1999, Fedele mistakenly replaced with a young football player with an older football player, violating a rule that required at least one player under the age of 21 to be on the playing field during the match. This mistake, dubbed the "Amirante Affair", cost Padova the match and contributed to them placing fifth from last by the end of the season.^[1]
