Juve Stabia has officially announced its new technical set‑up: De Vito as head of the technical area, Stefanelli as sporting director and Pietro De Giorgio as head coach. The announcement, made right after the presentation of president Alfredo Guerri, marks the first concrete step for the club’s 2026‑27 campaign.

Who are the protagonists?

De Vito, known for his background in athletic preparation, takes charge of the technical area on a two‑year deal. Stefanelli, a former player turned executive, is appointed new sporting director, giving him control over transfers and market strategy. Coach Pietro De Giorgio, with experience as an assistant in Serie C, also signs a two‑year contract to lead the squad.

How is the staff completed?

De Giorgio has chosen Guido Di Dona as assistant coach, supported by Gerardo Alfano and Andy Bangu as technical collaborators. The analysis department is headed by Giovanni Cesaroni, while Roberto De Luce and Fabiano Ponte handle athletic preparation. Amedeo Petrazzuolo rounds out the team as goalkeeping coach. All names were confirmed in the club’s press release.

Why does it matter for the season?

The new trio arrives with Juve Stabia sitting seventh in Serie B, 51 points, 11 wins, 18 draws and 9 losses from 38 games, recent form DLDDW. The side lost its latest match 2‑1 to Monza on 19 May 2026, but remains 31 points behind leaders Venezia. The stated goal is to cement a mid‑table spot and aim for a playoff push.

What are the next challenges?

The schedule pits the team against Crotone next week, a key fixture to test the new set‑up. De Giorgio has already spoken of a more aggressive attacking approach, hoping to improve the 44 goals scored so far against the 45 conceded. The club hopes the synergy among the three directors and the technical staff will translate into more consistent results, avoiding the recent two consecutive defeats.

The season is still long, and Juve Stabia must prove that the new hierarchy can turn the side into a competitive force capable of fighting for top positions.
