The Trofeo Spagnolo is a summer association football friendly tournament that takes place in Genoa, Italy, from 1995. The tournament is organized by Genoa C.F.C. in memoriam of Vincenzo Claudio Spagnolo, a Genoa fan that was murdered near where Genoa's match against Milan was being played, on 29 January 1995. The tournament was suspended in 2005 due to the unavailability Genoa's Stadio Luigi Ferraris[1] and in 2011 because of the stadium being needed for a second round Coppa Italia match between Sampdoria and Alessandria.[2] After 13 years of inactivity, the tournament resumed in the summer of 2026.
The teams played three round-robin matches that were each one half of 45 minutes. If any match ends in a draw, it's decided by a penalty shoot-out. Starting in 1998, the title was awarded to the winner of a single match at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
