Italian Serie B clubs pre‑season preparations

Overview

In late July, Palermo’s coach Pippo Inzaghi used a 1‑1 friendly against Greek side Iraklis to evaluate his squad, noting a solid training camp, the injury to Palumbo, and the need for new offensive wingers and midfield reinforcements. He highlighted the arrival of Dominic Vavassori as a left‑back option and stressed that upcoming transfer activity would shape the team ahead of the Serie B campaign.

A few days later, Empoli’s coach Guido Pagliuca reflected on a 1‑1 draw with Spezia in the club’s final pre‑season match. He described the game as a true test of the side’s tactical adaptability, emphasizing the importance of collective growth, youth development and improved defensive reactions. Both clubs used their friendlies to fine‑tune tactics, assess player readiness, and outline recruitment priorities as they prepared for the upcoming season.
