Matteo Paro (born 17 March 1983) is an Italian football coach and former player who played as a midfielder.

In the summer of 2003, Juventus sold half of Paro's contract to Chievo in July for €450,000 total fee along with Sculli and Gastaldello as part of the deal that sent defender Nicola Legrottaglie the other way.

In 2006, Juventus was relegated to Serie B and bought back Paro's 50% rights from Siena for an undisclosed fee.

In the summer of 2011, Danilo Russo returned to Genoa, and Paro joined Vicenza in another temporary deal.

After spending his two final seasons as a player at Mantova and Crotone, both times under head coach Ivan Jurić, Paro retired in order to join the Croatian's staff in 2017 at Genoa, first as a match analyst.
