Lazio have brought back Maurizio Sarri as manager – a year after he resigned from the post.
Sarri, 66, resigned as Lazio coach in March 2024 after almost three years in charge.
Lazio finished seventh in Serie A in 2023-24, having finished second the previous season. Sarri replaces Marco Baroni.

“Maurizio Sarri has returned home. His return is a choice of heart, conviction and vision,” club president Claudio Lotito said in a statement.
“With him we want to resume a path interrupted too soon, aware that together we can bring back enthusiasm, identity and ambition. Welcome back to your home Commander.”
Sarri has managed a large number of clubs and spent a year in charge of Chelsea – winning the Europa League in 2019.
He won Serie A in 2020 during his single season in charge of Juventus.
