Sandro Pochesci (born 9 October 1963) is an Italian football coach and former player.
Career
After a career as a player cut almost entirely spent in the amateur leagues, he started his coaching career on the regional divisions of Lazio. He then moved at Serie C2 club Viterbese, officially appearing as assistant due to him not having the coachind badges to serve professionally as head coach.[1] The same happened with Olbia, for which he worked from July to November 2007.[2] He then served as head coach of Serie D clubs such as Flaminia Civitacastellana (2008–09),[3] Monterotondo (2009–10),[4] Monterotondo Lupa (2011–12),[5] Cynthia (2012)[6] and Ostiamare (2013–14).[7]
In October 2014 he was named head coach of Fondi after the club's takeover by Università degli Studi Niccolò Cusano.[8] He resigned from the club in February 2016,[9] only to return in charge later in July after it was readmitted to Lega Pro to fill a vacancy.[10]
After an impressive season in charge of the club, and following the takeover of Ternana by the Stefano Bandecchi (owner of the Università degli Studi Niccolò Cusano), he was named new head coach of the Serie B club in July 2017.[11]
He made nationwide news on November 2017, after he commented Italy's 0–1 loss to Sweden in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers by defining the Swedish "a team of refugees".[12] He was sacked on 30 January 2018 due to poor results.[13]
On 25 March 2019 he was named new head coach of Serie C club Casertana.[14] After failing to guide the club to promotion, he was not confirmed at the helm of the club.
On 2 October 2019 he was announced as the new head coach of Serie C side Bisceglie in place of Rodolfo Vanoli.[15] He was dismissed on 25 November 2019, after the team only achieved 3 draws and 7 losses in 10 games under his helm.[16]
In December 2019, Pochesci was named as the new head coach of Moldovan National Division side FC Zimbru Chișinău after the club's takeover by Italian inverstors.[17] In early 2020, before the season had even started, Pochesci resigned from his position as head coach.
