Destiny Efosa Egharevba runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Marco Caldore in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Giugliano this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match26 Dec 2026

Still nobody has beaten Giugliano

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Destiny Efosa Egharevba falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad28 Dec 2026

A muscle injury sidelines Antonio Amato for 16 days

Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Giugliano will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

Squad28 Dec 2026

No hiding place for Pedro Justiniano

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Pedro Justiniano, and the manager let it.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Samuel Soares is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Samuel Soares: 2 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Ibourahima Baldé runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 35. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Antonio Amato damages knee ligaments — 14 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 14 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match4 Nov 2026

Giugliano bow out of the cup

Palermo go through and Giugliano go home, 0‑0 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Giugliano

Marco Caldore was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match7 Nov 2026

Cavese take the points off Giugliano

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Giovanni Volpe

Successful dribbles: 55. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Giuliano Laezza breaks a bone — 17 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 17 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Antonio Amato damages knee ligaments — 21 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 21 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Giugliano

Jérémie Broh was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match31 Oct 2026

Giugliano see off Sorrento

Three points for Giugliano, 1‑0 the final word against Sorrento in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

One of those days for Murilo

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.22, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Giuliano Laezza out for 32 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Giugliano will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Antonio Amato damages knee ligaments — 35 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 35 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market19 Oct 2026

Leon Klußmann puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Giugliano, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Giovanni Volpe scores twice — 8.35

Two goals and a mark of 8.35 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Market19 Oct 2026

Only the photograph left for Mario Prezioso

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Mario Prezioso will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Giugliano the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Leon Klußmann wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Giugliano know it.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Marco Caldore in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Giugliano this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match17 Oct 2026

Giovanni Volpe the difference as Giugliano beat Picerno

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Giovanni Volpe. 2‑1 against Picerno, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.
