Vincenzo Iaquinta, Cavaliere (born November 21, 1979 in Cutro, Crotone) is an Italian football striker, who currently plays for Udinese of Serie A. As many Calabrians in the 1980s Vincenzo's parents emigrated to Emilia-Romagna, in Northern Italy, because of better job opportunities. Vincenzo was then just a little boy with a strong passion for football.

Prior to joining Udinese, Iaquinta played with his brother in the lower divisions for Reggiolo (1996-97), Padova (1998), and Castel di Sangro (1998-2000). In 2005, for the first time he was called up for the Italian National Team. In his, and Udinese's first ever Champions League game, he scored 3 goals, which was quite a start to his European season. Iaquinta also had some troubles with Udinese about his wages and about him moving to another club. However, he remained in Udinese for 2006-2007 season.

He was a member of the Italian squad that won the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He scored Italy's second goal in their opening match against Ghana. He played in 5 out of 7 of Italy's matches including the semi-final and final.

Recently he has been linked with Internazionale.
