Paolo Zanetti he is the new coach of Hellas Verona. For the technician from Vicenza two year contract about 600 thousand euros a year. These are the broad details of the relationship between Verona and Zanetti, the official announcement of which is expected relatively soon.
Hellas Verona: Paolo Zanetti is the new coach
Last weekend Paolo Zanetti was able to definitively close the agreement that would have tied him to Empoli even during the current season. Without forgetting that Marco Baroni’s move to Lazio had not yet been officially announced, meaning the Tuscan coach was under contract with Verona for next season.
In short, a sort of puzzle with each pawn occupying its own space. Once this process has been completed, there is no longer any impediment to announcing Zanetti to Verona. A question that he already echoed last year. Is Zanetti the first choice at Hellas? This was also asked when Baroni was appointed, the question is back in the news.
At the end of the championship, president Setti and sporting director Sogliano had given their indication. Full speed ahead with Baroni, also enticed by an extension for another year and therefore the possibility of joining Verona until the end of 2025. Baroni rejected the proposals of the Gialloblù management, in fact he turned his back on Verona. An understandable choice motivated by many factors, not least the possibility of reaching an important bench and so it was.
Dionisi soon left the yellow-blue radar, the Donati hypothesis was more a suggestion from the square than a concrete lead. Zanetti plays with the 4-2-3-1, the formation with which Verona faced the entire second part of the season. We are therefore moving towards continuity of the tactical project and this in itself is comforting news. Zanetti has the right experience having led Empoli to a good salvation a couple of years ago but he also has the right energy, the desire to get back into the game and cancel the following year in Empoli after his adventure leading the Tuscans lasted only five games.
He has temperament, ideas of aggressive and physical football, the qualities that Sogliano was looking for in a coach to accomplish yet another great feat. Because it’s better to put your hands forward immediately. Saving yourself in the next Serie A championship will be even tougher than this year. Venice aside, the other newly promoted teams, Parma and Como, don’t seem to be arriving in Serie A just to make a presence, as can be seen, in particular, from the ambitious ownership that these two teams have behind them.
