The 1990-91 campaign was a glorious season of resurgence for Genoa as The Griffins secured a spectacular 4th-place finish in Serie A, their best result in decades, which secured a coveted spot in the following season's UEFA Cup. This historic success was spearheaded by the lethal strike partnership of the Czech giant Tomáš Skuhravý and the Uruguayan 'Pato' Carlos Aguilera, who both fired in 15 goals. Under the astute management of Osvaldo Bagnoli, this season was built on potent attacking power and remains a defining and nostalgic chapter that marked the club's final push for major relevance in the modern era.
