Lazio fires Pioli, turns to Inzaghi
Print Edition
LAZIO has fired Stefano Pioli and named Simone Inzaghi its new coach following a 1-4 derby loss to AS Roma.
Lazio announced the move late on Sunday, hours after the Serie A defeat to its city rival left the team in eighth place and unlikely to qualify for European competition.
Pioli, 50, led Lazio to a third-place finish last season but this campaign began poorly with a loss to Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champions League playoffs.
The 39-year-old Inzaghi, a former Lazio player, had been coaching the club’s youth squad. His older brother, Filippo Inzaghi, was a standout player for Juventus and AC Milan and coached Milan last season. It is Simone Inzaghi’s first coaching job in Serie A.
Lazio is the eighth Serie A club to change coaches this season.
In Germany, Bundesliga basement side Hanover 96 fired coach Thomas Schaaf after three months in charge on Sunday.
The decision came the day after a 0-3 home defeat by Hamburg SV, its 10th loss in 11 games since Schaaf took over, left it 10 points adrift at the bottom of the table.
“We have come to the conclusion that we don’t want to end the season in this way and will try to give the team a new impulse with a change of coach,” said sporting director Martin Bader in a club statement.
The club said under-19 team coach Daniel Stendel would take over for now.
