Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Italian football club Udinese on Monday appointed Fabio Cannavaro as manager, replacing Gabriele Cioffi for the remainder of the 2023-24 season.<\/p>\n

“There is no need to recall the exploits on the field of one of the greatest players in the history of Italian football, Cannavaro is a young and prepared coach of international stature who has already had the opportunity to test his abilities abroad,” the club said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Udinese said the club saw his experience on the field, technique and leadership suitable to lead the team.<\/p>\n

The appointment came after Gabriele Cioffi’s sacking after the team’s narrow loss to Hellas Verona on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Having 136 caps for Italy, Cannavaro captained Italy to win the 2006 FIFA World Cup title against France.<\/p>\n

The 50-year-old manager has served Dubai\u2019s Al-Ahli, Saudi Arabia\u2019s Al-Nassr, China’s Tianjin Quanjian, Guangzhou Evergrande, and Italy’s Benevento. He also managed the Chinese national team.<\/p>\n

Udinese are currently ranked 17, above the relegation zone with 28 points.<\/p>\n
