Arezzo turn down Sassuolo for Mauro Coppolaro

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

A move Francesco Sartori would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Francesco Sartori is living that version at Arezzo, and it tends to show in the first month.

Pietro Cianci signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pietro Cianci commits to Arezzo for another 3 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Arezzo

Leonardo Mancuso and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Venezia tell Arezzo: John Yeboah is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market10 Aug 2026

Giovanni Greco steps up from the Arezzo academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Giovanni Greco has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

One of our own: Dario Giuliani joins the Arezzo first team

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

One of our own: Pietro Vignali joins the Arezzo first team

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

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Matteo Gilli

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Words exchanged at Arezzo

Leonardo Mancuso 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Gianluca Di Chiara 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.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Arezzo and Gianluca Di Chiara

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Pietro Cianci knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Arezzo, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Filippo De Col is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Arezzo has been clear about where Filippo De Col stands, which is more than many ever get.
