Last season, the club, which barely avoided relegation, announced that Marco Giampaolo would be the new head coach of the team. M.Giampaolo, who last season coached the "Serie A" newcomer team "Ascoli" and managed to achieve a fairly high 12th place with them, will replace coach Nedo Sonetti, who resigned from his head coach duties earlier this month. "Our goal for the next season is to stay in "Serie A" and try to improve our results, which have not been very impressive in recent years," said the new 38-year-old "Cagliari" strategist M.Giampaolo. Last season, the "Cagliari" team finished in 16th place in the national championship and secured a place in the most prestigious Italian league for the next season with a few rounds remaining.
