Lorenzo Lucchesi is a medical away from Pianese

The deal with Monza 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.

Simone Ianesi 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.

Door shut on Joaquin Dalmasso

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

Market10 Aug 2026

Pianese turn down Altamura for Simone Ianesi

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

Squad10 Aug 2026

Franco Pinoni arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Franco Pinoni has, at Pianese, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Simone Ianesi signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Simone Ianesi and Pianese agree another 4 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Leonardo Di Cosmo 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 Pianese this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Pianese rebuffed over Tobias Slotsager

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

One of our own: Vincenzo Zangari joins the Pianese first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Vincenzo Zangari 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: Alessandro Ricci joins the Pianese first team

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

Market10 Aug 2026

Dario Marchetti steps up from the Pianese academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Dario Marchetti 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.

Squad10 Aug 2026

The formation has left Franco Pinoni behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Pianese will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Luca Fabrizi signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Luca Fabrizi and Pianese agree another 4 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Pianese

Leonardo Di Cosmo 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.

Francesco Proietto 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

The clock runs on Luca Fabrizi's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

A loan move for Tobias Slotsager is in the works

Pianese have made the call to Hellas Verona. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Pianese ask about Massimo Pessina

A loan enquiry to Bologna: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.
