Verona FC Announces Departure Of Head Coach Marco Baroni
Verona have parted ways with head coach Marco Baroni by mutual agreement, the Serie A club confirmed on Monday. Baroni took charge of Verona in July 2023, signing a one-year contract with an option for a second year. He leaves the club after one season in charge. The Italian won nine of his 38 league games, finishing with a win rate of 25 per cent.
The Gialloblu battled relegation for much of the campaign but managed to steer clear of the bottom three. This was Baroni's second stint in management at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi, having been appointed as Alberto Malesani's assistant for the 2002-03 season. Verona was the 16th club he has managed since starting his managerial career with Rodinella 24 years ago.
President Maurizio Setti, on behalf of the whole club, thanked Mr. Baroni for his contributions this season and wished him the best for his future career. "Grazie di tutto, mister #Baroni e in bocca al lupo per il tuo futuro professionale!" read a tweet from Hellas Verona FC.
According to Italian media reports, the 60-year-old is expected to become the Lazio manager, replacing Igor Tudor, who recently resigned after less than three months in charge.
