Officially: Sarri sacked as Lazio head coach

The club’s management has accepted the resignation request from the experienced manager.

This season, against the backdrop of the previous campaign’s silver medal, Italian Lazio is showing extremely mediocre results in Serie A, ranking ninth and lagging behind the European competition zone by at least seven points.

In addition, the Eagles are still participating in the Coppa Italia, where they will play Juventus Turin in the semi-finals, and last week they were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League, losing to Bayern Munich in the last 16.

However, the key indicator of the success of head coach Maurizio Sarri’s work has always been the league, where three defeats in a row eventually forced the experienced specialist to hand in his resignation the day before.

It didn’t take much time for Lazio’s management to consider this request – the decision was made the very next day, so Sarri and several of his assistants left the team’s location.

Maurizio, 65, has been with the Romans since the summer of 2021, having played 137 matches since then (65 wins, 30 draws, 42 defeats, goal difference – 205:159).

At the same time, Lazio announced at the online soccer betting sites that the team will be managed by Giovanni Martuschiello, a 52-year-old Italian coach who was previously the manager of Empoli, technical development coach at Inter Milan and assistant head coach at Juventus and Lazio under Sarri.
