Torino's Giampiero Ventura is among the Coaches being considered to replace Stefano Pioli at Lazio, say reports.
The Biancocelesti boss is widely expected to leave the Roman club at the end of the season after a disastrous campaign that has failed to live up to the standards set last season.
Current Milan boss Sinisa MIhajlovic has been touted as the favourite to succeed Pioli should he leave the Rossoneri, but La Repubblica has now thrown Ventura’s name into the hat.
Torino's Giampiero Ventura is among the Coaches being considered to replace Stefano Pioli at Lazio, say reports.
The Biancocelesti boss is widely expected to leave the Roman club at the end of the season after a disastrous campaign that has failed to live up to the standards set last season.
Current Milan boss Sinisa MIhajlovic has been touted as the favourite to succeed Pioli should he leave the Rossoneri, but La Repubblica has now thrown Ventura’s name into the hat.
Toro have also had a disappointing season and the Rome-based newspaper believes that there are reasons to believe their tactician could head to the Aquile in the summer.
The paper writes that Ventura flew to the capital on 27 February after the Granata’s 1-0 defeat to Milan and stayed there for two days, when a meeting with Lazio President Claudio Lotito may have taken place.
Ventura has been touted as a possible Italy CT after Antonio Conte leaves, but Lotito is believed to have great respect for the veteran Coach and could convince him to take over one of Serie A’s traditional big clubs for the first time.
