Giacomo Modica (born May 31, 1964 in Mazara del Vallo) is an Italian football manager and former midfielder. He is the current manager of Serie C2 team Celano.

After a playing career spent with several Serie B and Serie C1 teams, most notably Palermo and Padova, he moved into coaching, working as Zdenek Zeman's assistant for six years (even following him at Fenerbahçe) before becoming a head coach himself.
