Leonardo Colucci si candida a diventare l’allenatore del Torino in seconda. Ecco chi è l’allenatore classe 1972
Marco Baroni last week was named the new coach of Torino. And who will be his deputy? Most likely Leonardo Colucci. Born in Cerignola on December 29, 1972, he is 52 years old and coached Bologna’s Primavera team this year. From Reggiana onward, Baroni’s assistant coach has always been Fabrizio Del Rosso, including at Lazio. But now it’s time for change even for him, who has chosen Colucci as the No. 1 candidate. Colucci has good experience behind him, both as a player and as a coach. He retired from playing soccer on July 1, 2011, and holds a UEFA Pro License.
