About Alessandro Cibocchi
Alessandro Cibocchi (born 18 September 1982) is an Italian footballer who plays as a defender. == Career == === Early career === Born in Terni, Umbria, Cibocchi started his career at hometown club Ternana Calcio, which he made his league debut on 14 October 2001, as one of the starting XI. He was replaced by Cristian Lizzori in the 65th minute and the match Ternana losing to Ancona 0–1. === Torino & false accounting scandal === In January 2002, he swapped clubs with Torino Calcio's Emanuele Calaiò; the player exchange deal was later found to have inflated the price tag on both players, in order to increase the selling profit on the balance sheet. Despite it also creating another investment/cost on players and a counter-weight on the profit, it created an asset with higher nominal value than its fair value. The clubs were fined by Italian Football Federation (FIGC) 8 years later. He was awarded no.26 shirt in 2001–02 Serie A but did not make any appearances for Torino. Cibocchi was loaned to Viterbese in 2002–03 Serie C1 but the deal was cancelled in January 2003, and he returned to Ternana on loan. === Return to Ternana === In July 2003, he returned to Ternana on a permanent deal as the club exchanged him with Calaiò for a second time; he also signed a length deal partially to amortise his nominal price tag in years. He then left on loan to Meda of Serie C2 for that season. With the Lombard club, he played a career high with 24 league games in a single season.
