The Serie A season of 2025-26 has officially commenced, featuring a challenging defense of the title for Napoli. They claimed the championship on the final day of the previous season, their fourth Scudetto. Teams including Inter, Juventus, and AC Milan are in pursuit, alongside others like AS Roma, Atalanta, Lazio, Fiorentina, Bologna, and Como who aim for European tournament berths.
Can Sarri Revive Lazio After a Challenging Preseason?
Maurizio Sarri has returned to Lazio after stepping down in March 2024, facing significant financial challenges that hindered summer transfers. With limited changes to the squad he inherited from Marco Baroni, Sarri aims to reinvigorate the team’s performance following a disappointing seventh-place finish last season. Although faced with unexpected adversities, he remains optimistic about his impact.
Conversely, AS Roma’s outlook appears promising under new head coach Gian Piero Gasperini. Selected from a shortlist following a fruitful end to the last season, Gasperini is making a notable impact, aiming to bolster their credentials despite a recent home loss to Torino. Winning the Derby della Capitale holds immense significance for both Sarri and Gasperini.
