Lazio manager Maurizio Sarri undergoes heart surgery

Lazio manager Maurizio Sarri has undergone a minor heart operation.

The former Chelsea boss had been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, which affects the heart’s rhythm, with Italian media reporting it was a routine intervention.

The club expects the 66-year-old to return to his regular duties over the next few days.

Sarri was appointed Lazio manager for the second time in June 2025.

Lazio sit eighth in Serie A, with six wins from 17 matches, and host Napoli on Sunday (11:30 GMT).
