Daniele Bonera (born May 31, 1981 in Brescia) is an Italian footballer for A.C. Milan of Serie A where he plays in the role of defender and wears the shirt 25.
Bonera started his career for Brescia Calcio, making his first team debut in 1999/2000, in Serie B league. After two more impressive seasons with Brescia, which led him to be even capped for the Italy national football team, making his debut in a friendly match played September 5, 2001 against Morocco, Bonera moved to Parma in 2002/03.
On the 28 July 2006 Daniele moved to A.C. Milan for a transfer fee of about $2.5 milion.
His UEFA Champions League debut was against Anderlecht, 17 October 2006, in which he received a red card after receiving a second yellow in the 47the minute for what, in the referees view, was petulantly kicking the ball away as Anderlecht waited to take a Free Kick. After struggling in right back, Bonera was moved to centre back after several defenders were injured and the acquisition of Massimo Oddo from S.S. Lazio in January, a natural Right Back.
He was called up by Roberto Donadoni for Italy's Euro 2008 Qualifier against Scotland, a match scheduled for 28th March 2007, but had to withdraw due to injury.
He has been capped 13 times for Italy.
