Empoli is looking for a new coach after Caserta's departure. De Giorgio and Turati are the favorites for the Empoli bench. The team has received a two-year offer from Catania, which has made De Giorgio and Turati the favorites for the job. EMPOLI. The team's management is focused on finding a new coach, but they also need to start working on the project for next season. The current coaching staff seems to be in a hurry to find a new coach. Confirmation is unlikely. The confirmation of Fabio Caserta, who was long considered a favorite after the team's salvation on the last day of the season, is no longer a possibility. In fact, Caserta has received a two-year offer from Catania, which the team cannot and probably does not want to match. Today, the change seems the most likely option. The bench, with Alessio Dionisi who has signed a contract with Watford and Guido Pagliuca in the sights of Cesena, Catanzaro, and Carrarese, returns to the search for a new owner, and the approaches made by the sports director Stefano Stefanelli in recent days become relevant. A poker of candidates. Compared to the filtered rumors, however, the list is added to the full title of Gabriele Cioffi. Who was associated with the azzurri just before Caserta's arrival and now returns to the list of candidates. Fiorentino, born in 1975, has experience abroad while in Italy he has been at the helm of Udinese and Verona. With him, however, there are also others. One is Marco Turati, born in 1982, who after making his debut at the court of Vincenzo Italiano (at Spezia and at Florence) has made himself independent and also in evidence with a positive biennium at Siracusa. Victory in Serie D first, relegation from Serie C this year, it's true, but only for the points of penalty (well 11) incurred for problems. In the running, then, the former Pietro De Giorgio, born in 1983 and azzurro in the 2009/2010 season. He started as a coach in 2020 in Luparenze, then Lamezia and thus, from 2023, Potenza between collaborations, passages in the nursery and the last two years as a coach. Finally, there is always Antonio Buscé, born in 1975, ex of a thousand battles and excellent guidance in the youth teams (scudetti with Under 16 and Primavera). He was at Cosenza, in the last season, and did well as he had already done with Vibonese and Rimini. He has the advantage of knowing the environment, likes a lot at Pescara and in reality today the main candidates seem to be De Giorgio and Turati. A new round of talks will start soon (with Tomei of Ascoli as a possible new name) and in addition to the sports director Stefanelli, the president Fabrizio Corsi will also be present. The choice will be made at the end. The times? Within a week, perhaps less.
