The Italian club formalized the arrival of Patrick Vieira this Wednesday, November 20. The 1998 world champion who has been free since last summer will have the mission of putting Genoa back on track, which currently occupies 17th place in the Italian Serie A. “Genoa CFC announces that it has entrusted the technical direction of the first team to Patrick Vieira. The new coach will lead the first training session in the afternoon after the finalization of his contract at the Villa Rostan headquarters. After a professional career, Vieira coached the teams of New York City, Nice, Crystal Palace and Strasbourg. Welcome Mister,” the club wrote in a press release. Since the start of the season, the ex-Arsenal midfielder has worked as a consultant on the DAZN channel, after being sacked from Strasbourg in July.
