Maurizio Sarri has left Lazio by mutual agreement after one year as head coach. The 67-year-old returned for a second spell last summer after previously managing Lazio from 2021 to 2024. Lazio finished ninth in the league and lost 2-0 in the Coppa Italia final to Inter Milan. Lazio confirmed the separation and stated that contracts for Sarri and his coaching staff were terminated by mutual agreement. The club posted a farewell message on X, calling him “Commander.” Sarri previously joined Lazio in June 2021 and led the team to second place in 2022-23, their best league finish since 1999-2000. He resigned less than a year later after a run of defeats. Reports indicate Sarri may move to Atalanta, while Gennaro Gattuso is considered a leading candidate to replace him at Lazio.
"Sarri first joined Lazio in June 2021 and led them to second place in the 2022-23 season, which was their best league finish since winning the title in 1999-2000. However, he resigned a less than year later after Lazio suffered a fifth defeat in six games in all competitions."
