An Italian at the helm of Boavista: Cristiano Bacci is the new coach

Cristiano Bacci, former assistant coach of Udinese and right wingman of Gabriele Cioffi, is expected to leave Portugal. According to what I learned from TMWThe Boavista has found the coach who will lead the Panthers next season and it is the 48 year old Italian coach who already has a past on Portuguese soil.

Cristiano Bacci, in fact, between 2015 and 2016 managed theOlhanense for a year and averaged 1.20 points per game, until he moved to PAOK Thessaloniki, this time as assistant coach for two years. And here we are again in Portugal, this time at Boavista, which will soon finalize theagreement reached by the parties.

The Italian coach has not led a team since leaving the Algarve club in 2016, after having been an assistant assistant for the last seven seasons (PAOK, Al-Hilal and Udinese). He has won two Greek Cups, one Greek Championship, two Saudi Arabian Championships, one Saudi Arabian Cup and one Asian Champions League. Now a new chapter in his career begins, this time on the bench as coach in command and with the whistle in his mouth directing training.
