Lazio and Parma ‘to consider’ Crespo as new coach | OneFootball

Hernan Crespo could return to Serie A for his first top coaching job in Italy, with former clubs Lazio and Parma considering him.

Tuttomercatoweb reports that Crespo is seeking a move back to Italy and that both teams are potential destinations.

Parma are not entirely content with Carlos Cuesta despite a comfortable survival, while Lazio need a replacement for Maurizio Sarri who can win back the appreciation of the fans.

The 50-year-old Argentine was a standout in Serie A with Parma, Lazio, Inter, Milan and Genoa, finishing his career at the Stadio Tardini in January 2012.

He scored 153 goals in 340 Serie A games, winning three Scudetto titles, the Coppa Italia, the UEFA Cup, five editions of the Supercoppa Italiana and one Capocannoniere crown.

Crespo began coaching with Parma Under-19s in 2014-15, then had 35 games in charge of Modena in Serie B. He later managed Banfield, Defensa, Al-Duhail, Al-Ain and completed a second spell at Sao Paulo in March.
