Palladino, a coach born in 1984, is in Lazio orbit for the post-Sarri period. With a past as a footballer in Juventus, the coach from Campania took the Dea this year after Juric's disastrous start and was the protagonist of a great season where he managed to conquer almost everyone in Bergamo. The almost is a must given that despite the results the club seems inclined not to continue with him and to entrust the bench to Maurizio Sarri who is leaving Lazio after the controversy with president Lotito.
Palladino e altri nomi per la Lazio
Palladino is not the only name on the launch pad for the hot Lazio bench. Lotito likes the coach from Campania and the environment, given the good things done between Monza, Fiorentina and Atalanta, would not be so upset by his arrival but this is not enough to make his arrival official. In fact, the president of Lazio has two other possible candidates in mind to coach the club and they are Fabio Pisacane who is doing so well in his career in Cagliari and Thiago Motta, a high-sounding name who could further inflame an already decidedly hot place.
La rottura con Sarri
With an Italian Cup final and a relatively calm path in the championship, considering the club's non-summer transfer market and, above all, the important transfers such as those of Guendouzi in the winter transfer market, the Tuscan coach certainly couldn't have done more. But the failed promises, the president's character is not easy to manage, the many unconcealed stomach aches and the constant rumors of his landing on the bench of Naples or Atalanta have destroyed a relationship that was already hanging on a razor's edge. Thus, despite the unanimous positive opinion on Sarri's management, the point of no return has been reached.
I numeri di Palladino
The coach from Campania arrived at the Dea on 11 November this year with the Nerazzurri in absolute crisis after the disastrous management of Ivan Juric and accompanied the team on 38 occasions between Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League, managing to take the club from the relegation zone to qualification for the Conference League. Under his guidance the Bergamo players achieved 18 wins, 7 draws and 13 defeats, scoring 61 goals and conceding 47 with an average points of 1.61 per game. Before him, in 18 matches between Serie A and the Champions League, Juric had collected just 4 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats with an average points of 1.33 per game in all competitions, too little also because in the league after 11 matchdays the Dea had just 13 points and this certifies the great work of Palladino who is now, also for this reason, on the list of possible Lazio coaches next year.
