Eva Russo (born 2 September 1966)[1] is an Italian former international football goalkeeper.

Russo had 57 caps for the Italy women's national football team in December 1989 when she failed a drugs test ahead of a match with Switzerland and received a six-month suspension.[2]

While playing for Lazio, she was engaged to the male Lazio footballer Francesco Dell'Anno. The engagement broke off after four years. Russo also worked as an actress.[3]
