Marked for Omar Lebyad

6 Edition

The Lecco Courier

7 Sep 2026
From our football correspondent Triumph

Squad7 Sep 2026

A fracture rules Omar Lebyad out for 65 days

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

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Window shuts: 5 in, 2 out at Lecco

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 5 arrived, 2 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market7 Sep 2026

Sambenedettese come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Lecco did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A row about effort at Lecco

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Guillaume Furrer was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The terraces7 Sep 2026

The crowd has taken to Gabriel Pellegrino

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match5 Sep 2026

Guillaume Furrer the difference as Lecco beat Giana Erminio

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Guillaume Furrer. 2‑0 against Giana Erminio, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Ninety minutes of Guillaume Furrer at his very best

Marked 8.39. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Lecco.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Ninety minutes of Gabriel Pellegrino at his very best

Marked 8.09. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Lecco.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Giulio Manetti slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Giulio Manetti is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

From our football correspondent Triumph

Market31 Aug 2026

Jacopo Furlan asks to leave Lecco

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A fracture rules Omar Lebyad out for 73 days

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

Market31 Aug 2026

Joaquin Dalmasso agrees terms with Sambenedettese

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Lecco people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

Lecco rebuffed over Sadik Fofana

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Lecce have kept their man, and Lecco go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market31 Aug 2026

Nicolò Tondi moves on

Guidonia Montecelio pay $22.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Match29 Aug 2026

Matteo Casarotto sends Lecco past Alcione Milano

It finished 1‑0, and it was Matteo Casarotto’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Lecco.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Guillaume Furrer runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Too much change too quickly at Lecco

7 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Matteo Casarotto was the difference for Lecco

Marked 7.56. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Squad24 Aug 2026

80 days out for Omar Lebyad after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Lecco will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market24 Aug 2026

Nicolò Tondi agrees terms with Guidonia Montecelio

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Lecco people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Market24 Aug 2026

Lorenzo Mihali 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 Lecco, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

No thanks: Tobías Ramírez rejects the move

Lecco had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at River Plate, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Boardroom24 Aug 2026

5 academy graduates step up at Lecco

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Lecco

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Guillaume Furrer was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Door shut on Joël Schingtienne

Lecco asked and Venezia said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market24 Aug 2026

Lecco promote Renato Zorzi from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Renato Zorzi has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market24 Aug 2026

One of our own: Cristiano De Luca joins the Lecco first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Cristiano De Luca is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Omar Lebyad breaks a bone — 87 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 87 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Kevin Bonifazi is a medical away from Lecco

The deal with Bologna is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Michelangelo Benvenuto out for 15 days

The medical room confirms 15 days on the sidelines for Michelangelo Benvenuto, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Guillaume Furrer 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.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Lecco rebuffed over Mikel Amondarain

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Bologna have kept their man, and Lecco go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market17 Aug 2026

Sambenedettese join the queue for Joaquin Dalmasso

Add another name to the list: Sambenedettese have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Joaquin Dalmasso. The answer from Lecco has not changed — yet.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Omar Lebyad breaks a bone — 94 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 94 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Door shut on Omar Fayed

Lecco asked and Frosinone said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Lecco

Giulio Manetti and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market10 Aug 2026

48 months and counting on Antonio Metlika

Still no offer on the table, and Antonio Metlika’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Lecco try to borrow Quentin Ndjantou

Paris Saint-Germain have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Market10 Aug 2026

Lecco and Lukas Sinn are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.
