1999–2000 A.C. Fiorentina season

Fiorentina
1999–2000 season
President	Vittorio Cecchi Gori
Manager	Giovanni Trapattoni
Stadium	Stadio Artemio Franchi
Serie A	7th
Coppa Italia	Quarter-finals
UEFA Champions League	Second group stage
Top goalscorer	League: Gabriel Batistuta (23); All: Gabriel Batistuta (29)

Associazione Calcio Fiorentina did not manage to repeat its near-miss season from 1998–99, and instead missed out on qualification to the Champions League, following an inconsistent season. Its topscorer Gabriel Batistuta finally gave up on clinching the Serie A title with Fiorentina, and switched to Roma in the summer, a move which was greeted with controversy since Roma had only finished sixth in the 1999–2000 season.

Fiorentina came close to advancing to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, but ultimately a draw at home against Bordeaux ensured that home wins against Manchester United and Valencia were not enough.
