Paolo Zanetti is delighted to have signed a new deal with Empoli.

The coach has penned terms to 2025 after guiding Empoli to Serie A safety last season.

Zanetti said: "I thank the Corsi family and the Director for yet another show of trust in me.

"As is normal, we met to plan the new season and in doing so I found great unity of purpose between the parties, a desire to do well and to continue the work started a year ago.

"We know how difficult the Serie A championship is but at the same time it is highly stimulating to try and confirm yourself. We have our goal very clear, we want to try to achieve a feat that Empoli never managed, I am strongly motivated and I will give everything to achieve the third consecutive salvation and give our fans new joys."
