Manuel Pascali (born 9 September 1981 in Milan, Italy) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Premier League side Kilmarnock.

He started his career with Sant'Angelo before moving on to Serie C2 with Pizzighettone and Carpenedolo. He then earned a move to Serie A with Parma in 2007, although he was loaned out to Foligno of Serie C1/A for the entire 2007–08 season.

He initially joined Kilmarnock on trial in July 2008 with a view to a one-year loan deal.[1] During this period however, his performances convinced manager Jim Jefferies to part with an undisclosed fee to acquire him on a three-year deal.[2]

Pascali has quickly established himself as a cult favourite with the fans at Rugby Park and his early influential performances have led to him being awarded the captains armband in the absence of club captain Gary Locke and his deputy James Fowler. His passion and commitment to the club have led the fans to regard Pascali as a Rugby Park fans favourite.
