Empoli is looking for a new coach for the 2026-27 season. The club is in talks with two American investment funds and an entrepreneur from northern Italy. Vice President and CEO Rebecca Corsi explained that the club must revise its strategies due to limited resources. The goal is to find a coach who can work with young players and accompany them in their development. Pietro De Giorgio and Marco Turati are the main candidates for the role of Empoli coach. De Giorgio coached Potenza in the last season, while Turati led Siracusa. Both have shown that they can work with young players and have the necessary experience to face Serie B. The situation is different for De Giorgio, who still has a year of contract with Potenza and therefore may require an agreement with the Basilicata club to leave early. Turati, on the other hand, left Siracusa and returned to Vincenzo Italiano's staff, but it is unlikely that he will follow Italiano to Turkey to join Besiktas. Meanwhile, Cioffi and Buscè have been excluded from the list of coaches in contention for the role. The choice of coach will be crucial for Empoli's 2026-27 season. The club must find a technician who can work with young players and accompany them in their development. Serie B will not give anyone any discounts and Empoli will have to be competitive to achieve its goals. The club is aware of the difficulties it will face, but is determined to find the right solution for its future. Empoli's management is increasingly difficult to maintain due to the effects of Covid, which have been felt by the club. The club's approach to the new season will be crucial in determining its success. The search for a new coach is just the beginning of a long process that will shape Empoli's future.
