Marco Baroni joins Lazio as new manager on Two-Year Contract (Govima Sports Report)
Lazio has officially appointed Marco Baroni as their new manager on a two-year contract, set to run until June 2026. Baroni, the former Hellas Verona manager, steps into the role following the departure of Ivan Tudor last week.
Baroni’s appointment marks a new chapter for Lazio, who are eager to build on their recent performances and push for higher achievements in both domestic and European competitions. Known for his tactical acumen and ability to develop young talent, Baroni brings a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective to the Roman club.
“I am thrilled to join Lazio and lead this talented group of players,” Baroni stated during his unveiling. “The potential within this team is immense, and I am committed to bringing out the best in each player to achieve our collective goals.”
Baroni’s tenure at Hellas Verona showcased his ability to manage under pressure and deliver results, qualities that Lazio’s management found appealing in their search for a new head coach. The club’s decision to appoint Baroni comes after much speculation and consideration of various candidates.
Notably, Portuguese manager Sérgio Conceição was never close to becoming Lazio’s head coach, despite numerous rumors. The club ultimately decided that Baroni’s vision and approach aligned more closely with their future ambitions.
Lazio fans are optimistic about Baroni’s arrival, hoping he can lead the team to new heights and secure a strong position in Serie A and beyond. As Baroni takes the helm, all eyes will be on Lazio to see how they perform under their new leadership in the upcoming season.
