Dario Hübner (born 28 April 1967 in Muggia, Province of Trieste), nicknamed Bisonte (Bison), is a retired Italian football (soccer) player, as a striker. A prolific and opportunistic striker with an eye for goal, and an accurate finisher (with his head and feet) and penalty taker, he was, however, questioned for his work-rate and behaviour at times. He scored over 300 goals throughout his career, only playing in the higher divisions towards the end of his career, becoming the oldest player to win the Serie A Top-scorer award, which he managed during the 2001–02 Serie A season, at the age of 35; this record was later broken by Luca Toni in 2015, who won the award at the age of 38. 38 of his career goals came from penalties, whilst he was sent off 10 times throughout his career, also receiving 36 yellow cards.
Hübner started his career in 1987–88 at Pievigina, in Interregionale, scoring 10 goals. He later also played in Pergocrema (1988–89), Fano (1989–92) in Serie C, and Cesena (1992–97), in Serie B.
