Maurizio Sarri

Maurizio Sarri, born on January tenth, nineteen fifty-nine, is an esteemed Italian football manager currently at the helm of Serie A club Lazio. His journey in football began not as a professional player but as an amateur centre back, all while balancing a career in banking. This unique combination of experiences laid the groundwork for his future in football management.

In two thousand five, Sarri embarked on his managerial career in Serie B with Pescara. His breakthrough came in two thousand fourteen when he led Empoli to promotion to Serie A. After successfully maintaining their top-flight status, he was appointed as the manager of Napoli, where he garnered several individual accolades and led the team to a second-place finish in the league during the two thousand seventeen-eighteen season.

Following his success in Naples, Sarri made a significant move to Chelsea, where he clinched the UEFA Europa League title in his inaugural season. His return to Italy saw him take charge of Juventus in two thousand nineteen, where he made history by becoming the oldest manager to win Serie A, securing the league title in his first year. However, after a brief tenure, he parted ways with Juventus.

In two thousand twenty-one, Sarri took over as manager of Lazio, a position he resigned from in two thousand twenty-four. Yet, his passion for the club brought him back in June two thousand twenty-five, marking another chapter in his illustrious managerial career.
