History

[edit]
The performance of Lecce in the Italian football league structure since the first season of a unified Serie A (1929/30)

Lecce was founded asSporting Club Lecceon 15 March 1908, initially includingfootball,track-and-fieldand cycling sports. The first club president was Francesco Marangi. The first colours worn by Lecce during this time were black and white stripes, known in Italy asbianconeri.

In its formative years, Lecce played in mostly regional leagues and competitions. During the 1923–24 season, the club dissolved before returning on 16 September 1927 asUnione Sportiva Lecce.The club was still wearing black and white stripes (similar toJuventus' kit) at this point, and the first president under the name Unione Sportiva Lecce was Luigi López y Rojo.

League: Early years 1930s, 40s and 50s

[edit]

Taranto Sportplayed Lecce in a game for promotion toSerie Bfrom the local Southern Italian league; Lecce were victorious winning 3–2 afterextra time.They were entered intoSerie Bfor the 1929–30 season. The first game match played in the league was againstNovaraon 6 October 1929, a 2–1 victory. Lecce would eventually finish 13th. However, for the second time in the club's history, it ceased activity at the end of the 1931–32 season.

Four years later, Lecce returned and competedSerie C,finishing 11th in their return season. Around this time, the club was in turmoil: the following season they withdrew from Serie C after four days, and then during the 1938–39 season, they finished in third place but were moved down to 12th after it was revealed the club had violated the league's federal regulations.

The club finished in first place during the 1943–44 season, but club football was then suspended due toWorld War II.Nonetheless, when club football resumed, Lecce finished as champions of Serie C, gaining promotion back into Serie B. Two decent seasons followed (finishing fourth and third in respective seasons), with star player Silvestri scoring 20 goals in one season, before the club was relegated.

Lecce stayed down in Serie C for six seasons during this period, though this was not a particularly successful time for the club. Striker Anselmo Bislenghi scored 83 goals for the club during this period, thus becoming a hero. The club slipped even lower toSerie IV,where they spent three years.

Seventeen seasons of Serie C: 1960s, 70s and 80s

[edit]

From 1959 to 1975, Lecce played 17 seasons in Serie C. They came extremely close to promotion several times during that period, finishing in second place three seasons in a row (1971–72, 1972–73, 1973–74) before gaining promotion in the 1975–76 season.

The same year as their promotion, Lecce tasted cup success, winning theCoppa Italia Serie C.In 1976, Lecce took part in theAnglo-Italian Cup,notching up a 4–0 victory againstScarborough.[3]

In 1980, a scandal occurred which rockedItalian football,including Lecce under president Franco Jurlano. However, Jurlano was able to demonstrate his innocence and the scandal only lead to disqualification of player Claudius Merlo. Later, the club was struck by a tragedy in 1983: playersMichele Lo Russoand Ciro Pezzella died in anautomotiveaccident. To this day, Lo Russo remains the club record holder for most number of appearances, with 415.

Promotion to Serie A: mid-1980s and 90s

[edit]

Under the management ofEugenio Fascetti,Lecce would achieve promotion toSerie Afor the first time in 1985. They finished bottom and were relegated after only one season, but defeatedRoma3–2 away in the penultimate game to deal a fatal blow to Roma's title hopes. Losing a promotion play-off 2–1 toCesenathe following season, they would return to Serie A in 1988.

UnderCarlo Mazzone,Lecce finished a respectable ninth place in 1989. Stars of the side included strikerPedro Pasculliand midfieldersAntonio ConteandPaolo Benedetti.They lasted three seasons before relegation, and returned two years later. The 1993–94 season saw Lecce finish in last place with a pitiful 11 points, the lowest ever of any Serie A team, and a second relegation came the following year.

Giampiero Venturasaw Lecce achieve two successive promotions from Serie C to Serie A before leaving forCagliari.Once more, it proved a struggle in Serie A despite the best efforts of strikerFrancesco Palmieriand a famous away win againstMilanon 19 October 1997.

In the summer of 1998,Pantaleo Corvinowas appointed new sports director, gaining a reputation for scouting new talents in the years to come. The team was good enough to return to Serie A in 1999 and begin another three-year stint in the top-flight, with yet another return to Serie A in 2003.

Three years in Serie A (2003–2006)

[edit]
Lecce-Lazio5–3,Stadio Via del Mare,1 May 2005

In 2004, underDelio Rossi,who had been managing the club since 2002, Lecce achieved an impressive result, reaching a high-point of tenth despite a poor first half of the season. Famous performances include two sensational victories in a row, first against Italian giants Juventus 3–4 inTurin(the first ever win at theStadio Delle Alpifor Lecce) and then againstInternazionale2–1 at theStadio Via del Mare.

In2004–05,coachZdeněk Zemanoversaw a highly attack-minded team that scored plenty of goals. Lecce ended the year again finishing tenth, putting in the spotlight talents likeValeri BojinovandMirko Vučinić.The team had the second-best attack with 66 goals (Juventus came first with 67) and the worst defence, with 73 goals conceded. This is a record, as for the first time the team with the worst defence managed to survive in the history of Serie A.

The2005–06 seasonwas a continual struggle for Lecce. The club changed its manager two times (Silvio BaldiniforAngelo Adamo Gregucciand in January 2006 youth team coachRoberto Rizzo,supported by goalkeeper coachFranco Paleari,for Baldini). The numerous managerial moves could not turn Lecce's fortune as they were relegated with a few games to spare and ended the season in 19th place. In June 2006, Giovanni Semeraro returned at the helm of the club after nine months. The club re-appointed Zdeněk Zeman as manager, just one year after he left the club.

Lecce was unable to avoid relegation from Serie A, despite some initial hope due to theSerie A match-fixing scandal.

Two-year stint in Serie B and promotion

[edit]

The club had a mixed start to the2006–07 seasonin Serie B, winning three home matches (including a win against early league leadersGenoa), though they suffered poor away form. After a large drop in form, recording 10 losses in 18 matches, Zeman was sacked as manager and replaced byGiuseppe Papadopulo.On 10 March 2007, Lecce clinched a historical victory overFrosinone,beaten 5–0 at Stadio Via del Mare. Having gained 36 points in the second half of the season, Lecce ended the season in the middle of the table, in ninth place. In 2007, Lecce gained more points than any other team in Serie B.

The2007–08 seasonsaw Lecce fight for a place in Serie A for the next season. Despite earning 83 points (12 more than sixth-placedPisa) and boasting the best defence in the tournament, thegiallorossiwere forced to face play-offs for promotion in the top flight. In the semi-final, they beat Pisa in both legs (1–0 away and 2–1 at home) to secure a place in the final againstAlbinoLeffe.Then they won the first leg 1–0 away, before securing a 1–1 draw in the second leg at the Studio Via del Mare to gain promotion.

Between Serie A and Serie B

[edit]
Fans celebrating the club's eighth promotion to Serie A in May 2010

After persistent rumours, Papadopulo quit due to a difference of opinion with the general manager of the club and was replaced byMario Beretta,who had a quite satisfactory start in the2008–09 Serie Aseason. He remained in charge for twenty-seven games, but, due to four defeats in the last five matches, with the team one point below the survival zone, he was sacked andLuigi De Caniowas appointed new manager. Seven points earned in ten matches were not enough to secure Lecce a spot in the next Serie A season. Relegation was official with one match to spare, after a 1–1 home draw againstFiorentina.

Lecce had a mixed start in the2009–10 Serie Bcampaign, but clinched first place in November 2009 and kept it for the rest of the season. In May, the team was on the verge of promotion, but wasted opportunities in their last two matches meant they had to wait until the last match to celebrate their eighth elevation to the top flight in the last 25 years. A goalless home draw withSassuoloproved enough to clinch the Serie B title with 75 points and win theCoppa Ali della Vittoria.

Lecce ended a satisfactory2010–11 Serie Aseason successfully avoiding relegation with one match to spare after beating arch-rival and already relegatedBari2–0 away on 15 May 2011. In the last few matches, the team managed to win a tough battle against other underdogs and some glorious teams such asSampdoriathat ended the season in despair. ManagerLuigi De Canioleft the team in June.

In the2011–12 Serie Aseason, Lecce was relegated to Serie B. The start of the season was bad and new managerEusebio Di Francescowas sacked in December, after 9 losses in 13 matches.Serse Cosmiwas appointed new manager. Lecce refused to crumble as Cosmi's arrival instilled battling qualities into the relegation strugglers, who managed to gain a considerable number of points in the following months, but eventually failed to avoid relegation, due to four losses in the last five matches. Lecce managed to struggle until the final game.

Third division years

[edit]

On 10 August 2012, Lecce was provisionally relegated by the Disciplinary Commission set up for theScommessopoliscandal investigations2012–13 Lega Pro Prima Divisionebecause of their involvement. Furthermore, the former president of Lecce, Semeraro, was suspended from all football activities for five years.[4]On 22 August 2012, Lecce's relegation was confirmed by the Federal Court of Justice.[5]In the first season back into the third tier, Lecce ended in second place behind outsidersTrapaniand was surprisingly defeated in the promotion playoffs finals by another outsider club,Carpi.The following season ended in similar fashion, with Lecce failing to win the league once again and then losing the playoffs finals, this time toFrosinone,despite a number of high-level signings such as formerPalermostar, and well-known Lecce supporter,Fabrizio Miccoli.In 2014–15 Lecce ended the season in sixth place and did not enter the playoffs.

Following the departure of the Tesoro family, the club was taken over by a consortium of entrepreneurs led by Saverio Sticchi Damiani. The club ended the 2015–16 season in third place, two points behind the second-placed team, and qualified for the playoffs round. After defeatingBassano3–0 at home, in the semi-finals Lecce lost toFoggiain both the home and the away match. In the following season, Lecce finished in second place. The elimination came in the play-off quarterfinals againstAlessandriaonpenaltiesafter two draws in two matches.

Back to the top

[edit]

In September 2017,Fabio Liveraniwas named new coach of Lecce, with whom he achieved two direct promotions from Serie C to Serie A, thus bringing the Salento club back to the Italian top-tier league after seven years.[6][7]Lecce then fought againstGenoafor survival and made it to the last day of the2019–20 seasonbefore being relegated with a home loss to Parma.[8]Thesalentinimissed out promotion to Serie A in the2020–21 season,losing toVeneziain the play-off semifinals after a 4th-place finish, but then, with coachMarco Baroni,won the2021–22 Serie Bchampionship, thus celebrating their tenth elevation to the top flight and being awarded the Coppa Nexus. Lecce strikerMassimo Codawas top scorer of the Serie B for two seasons in a row in 2020–21 and 2021–22. Thegiallorossiside then gained survival in the next Serie A campaign with a game to spare, with Baroni and Lecce parting ways at the end of the 2022–23 season.
