Italian Lisci takes Osasuna helm
Osasuna have appointed Alessio Lisci as their new head coach, the LaLiga club announced on Monday. The club announced Lisci as their new head coach on a two-year contract, luring him away from Segunda Division side Mirandes where he had engineered an against-the-odds run to the promotion play-off finals. The appointment ends weeks of speculation about Vicente Moreno's successor. Moreno announced he would be leaving the club last month after being in charge for a year. Lisci inherits a side that have firmly established themselves in Spain's top tier, with Osasuna narrowly missing out on European qualification after securing a respectable ninth place finish this season.

🎥 Lisci unveiled as Osasuna boss: a surreal introduction 🤔
Alessio Lisci is the new coach of Osasuna: the Italian coach who last year led Mirandés to a surprising fourth place in the Spanish second division, almost achieving promotion to La Liga. Lisci, who had his playing career at Guidonia and then became a fitness coach for Lazio before starting his coaching career in Spain in 2011, was announced with much excitement by the Pamplona club. Advertisement Osasuna first published a tweet with the words VENI VIDI LISCI. Then they upped the ante with a tweet where the Italian coach was depicted dressed as a centurion. Finally, the classic presentation video, partly shot at the Italian Consulate in the city of Pamplona, featuring various Italian symbols in view and a mandolin for full Italian stereotype effect. In short, a somewhat surreal approach to announcing the hiring of the Italian coach until 2027. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
