Mario Bergamaschi (Italian pronunciation: [ˈmaːrjo berɡaˈmaski]; 7 January 1929 – 18 January 2020) was an Italian footballer who played as a midfielder.

At club level, he played for 14 seasons (392 games, 7 goals) in Serie A for Calcio Como, A.C. Milan and U.C. Sampdoria.

At international level, he made his debut for the Italy national football team on 5 December 1954 in a game against Argentina.

He stated that during the championship 1957 season he used to take doping that the players called "centimeter", from the markings on the syringe.[1]

At the time of his death, he was the last living person to have appeared for Milan in the 1958 European Cup Final, as well as one of two living people born in the 1920s to have played for Milan, with the other being Lorenzo Buffon.[2]
