Lazio Planning Managerial Revamp: Hellas Verona Sporting Director to Join? | OneFootball

Hellas Verona sporting director Sean Sogliano is reportedly heading towards the exit door, and Lazio could be his next destination.

Sean Sogliano’s Background

The 55-year-old has built a solid reputation after serving as a football director for over two decades. He first made a name for himself at Varese between 2004 and 20011, and also had experiences at Bari and Padova, in addition to brief spells at Palermo and Genoa.

Sogliano is currently in his second stint at Verona, having already worked for the club between 2012 and 2015. He made his return to the Bentegodi in 2022 and has helped the club register major capital gains thanks to his ability to poach young players on the cheap and sell them for considerable profits. The likes of Tijjani Noslin and Reda Belahyane are prime examples of his work.

Sogliano Wanted at Lazio

According to Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Sogliano could be set to leave the Gialloblu when his contract expires at the end of the season, even though the hierarchy will try to keep him. The two parties should hold talks soon.

Pedulla reveals that the sporting director has several admirers, but only unveils Lazio as a potential suitor.

Angelo Fabiani Would Become Lazio General Director

The transfer market expert reveals that the Aquile could shake things up at the upper-management level, with the club’s current sporting director, Angelo Fabiani, potentially promoted to role of General Director, which would make way for Sogliano.

As the source explains, Sogliano’s expertise aligns with Lazio’s strategy, which is increasingly leaning towards signing talented young players. The Biancocelesti are expected to undergo a major revamp, especially with nine players running on contracts expiring in June 2027.
