Cagliari Calcio announces that, with immediate effect, Stefano Capozucca has been entrusted with the role of Sporting Director of the Club. Pierluigi Carta's work will continue within the Technical Sport Department: he will direct the coordination between the Club and the Sport Area.

Born in 1955, Capozucca returns to Sardinia: as a Sporting Director of the Club, he achieved an immediate return in Serie A, back in the season 2015-16; the following year the team reached 47 points, which earned them to save themselves with any difficulty. The certainty of being saved was obtained four games before the end of the season, the team reaching finally the 11th place in the table.

The new Sporting Director will once again be able to make available to the Club his long experience as a sports manager, the temper and pragmatism that have always distinguished him.

Good luck, Stefano.
