Official: Lazio sack Pioli

Lazio have officially sacked Coach Stefano Pioli and handed the reins to Simone Inzaghi for the rest of the season.

The decision was announced in a brief statement this evening.

Pioli’s position had already become untenable, but he had hoped to reach the end of the campaign.

However, today’s 4-1 Derby della Capitale defeat to arch rivals Roma proved too much to sustain.

Inzaghi is a former Lazio player and is currently the Coach of their Primavera youth team.
