Jonathan Bachini (born 5 June 1975) is a former Italian footballer.
In his earlier years he was considered a promising midfielder, making several appearances for the Italian national team. Bachini has played for Lecce, Udinese, Juventus F.C., Brescia, Parma and Siena of Serie A.
On 3 July 2001, he joined Parma from Juve as part of Gianluigi Buffon's deal.[1] In July 2003 Brescia finally signed Bachini outright along with Matuzalém.
On 22 September 2004 Bachini tested positive for cocaine usage. On 25 November 2004, he was suspended for 9 months. In January 2006, Bachini's urine sample collected from the match against Lazio on 4 December 2005 was tested positive for cocaine again, as a result of which he has been banned for life by the Italian Football Federation from 10 January 2006.[2][3]
