Sergio Machin (sometimes also spelt Makin, born 6 July 1952) is a Croatian retired football player.
Born in Rijeka, as a player he was part of HNK Rijeka's golden generation which won the Yugoslav Cup in 1978 and 1979. He was an all round player that could play as a defender, midfielder and forward, although he was most comfortable in the midfield. Although one of Rijeka's most talented players, he never made an appearance in the Yugoslavia national team due to biases in favour of players from the "big four" (Red Star Belgrade, Partizan Belgrade, Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split). [1] Before finishing his career, he played the second half of the 1981-82 season with another Yugoslav First League club, NK Zagreb. [2]
Currently, Sergio Machin lives in Novigrad, Istria, where he runs a hotel. [3]
