Sampdoria Relegated to Serie C for First Time After Serie B Finish

News summary

Sampdoria, a historically prestigious Italian football club and Serie A champion in 1991, has been relegated to Serie C for the first time in its 79-year history after a 0-0 draw against Juve Stabia. This drop to the third division marks a significant decline following their relegation from Serie A just two years ago and comes amid serious financial difficulties, including a €40.7 million loss in 2024. The club went through multiple managerial changes during the season, starting with Andrea Pirlo and ending with Alberico Evani, but failed to avoid relegation despite efforts and significant player signings. The relegation has created tension around the club, with ultras issuing threats and the team training in secret. Sampdoria will now face the challenge of rebuilding from Serie C after decades of success, including winning four Coppa Italia trophies and a European Cup Winners' Cup. Other clubs like Cittadella and Cosenza were also relegated, while teams such as Salernitana earned play-off chances to avoid the drop.
