Catanzaro is actively seeking a new coach following Alberto Aquilani's departure. According to Tuttosport, the giallorossi are considering Guido Pagliuca's profile, who is currently in talks with Cesena. However, the situation at the Romagna club is at a standstill, which could favor Catanzaro's entry into the race for the coach. The Cesena ownership is contemplating giving Ashley Cole another chance, thus delaying the agreement with Pagliuca.

Ciro Polito, the sporting director of Catanzaro, has recently renewed his contract with the Calabrian club and is looking to take advantage of the situation. Catanzaro needs a new technical leader for the upcoming season and sees Pagliuca as the ideal candidate to ensure continuity in the sporting project. The results Pagliuca has achieved in the last two seasons at Juve Stabia, along with his ability to develop young players, make him a very interesting candidate for the club.

Moreover, the recognizable playing identity proposed by Pagliuca is an element that has convinced Catanzaro to attempt to overtake Cesena. The current situation offers a unique opportunity for the giallorossi to secure a valuable coach and build a competitive team for the upcoming Serie B season.
