Boscaro, who joins the Venice-based club after serving as Sales Director at AC Milan, will lead the revenue strategy with the goal of accelerating the growth of commercial activities and partnerships.

The manager will report directly to new President Francesca Bodie and the Board of Directors and, with the support of the Elevate team, will lead the strategic development of the Club’s revenue streams. Particular focus will be placed on positioning the new, state of the art stadium as a unique hub for sporting and entertainment events throughout the region and country, on the enhancement of the Club’s media rights, and on building strategic partnerships with the leading institutional and cultural stakeholders both locally, regionally and internationally.



“I would like to welcome Nicola on behalf of the entire Club and partners,”

“Nicola is one of the most experienced sports executives I’ve seen changing the way Clubs drive revenue and international brand recognition. I am confident that his proven track record in revenue development and establishing high-value partnerships, combined with a deep understanding of the Serie A football ecosystem, will be instrumental in accelerating our Club’s commercial growth. Together with Nicola and the rest of the management team, we aim to build an internationally recognized stadium home that will make Venezia FC one of the leading forces in Italian football as well as be an international point of destination for music and live entertainment. His arrival is a concrete testament to the ownership’s commitment and vision to be world class.”

“I am deeply honored to join the Venezia FC project, under the leadership and vision of Francesca Bodie and the entire ownership group" 

. I truly believe this represents one of the most exciting and forward-thinking projects in international football today. It is both a privilege and a great responsibility for me to become part of it, made even more meaningful by my Venetian roots”.

The Venezia FC Lionesses suffered an away defeat against Lumezzane at the end of a dramatic and action-packed match. After taking the lead in the second half through Ballo and equalizing late on thanks to Cortesi, the orange-and-black side were eventually beaten 4-2 by the Lombardy team in the closing minutes. Following this result, the Venetian side have been mathematically relegated.

The match was balanced and hard-fought from the opening stages. Coach Oliveira’s players created several chances but lacked precision in the final third. In the 14th minute, from a corner taken by Mazis, Saggion headed over the bar. Shortly afterward, Ballo set up Mazis on the edge of the area, but the shot went wide. Venezia kept pressing: Zuanti tried from distance in the 37th minute, while in the 39th minute Mazis came close to scoring with a powerful effort that narrowly missed the target. Near the end of the first half, Doneda also threatened, but her shot was blocked by the home defense. Lumezzane mainly responded through dangerous counterattacks, but the score remained 0-0 at halftime.

Venezia started the second half strongly. In the 49th minute, Capecchi made a crucial save from Willis’ header, and three minutes later the orange-and-black side took the lead: high pressure on the right forced an error from the Lombard defense, allowing Ballo to unleash a precise right-footed strike from the edge of the box into the top corner for 0-1. The home side reacted and equalized in the 66th minute through Pinna, who took advantage of a through ball and beat Pucova. Lumezzane completed the comeback in the 72nd minute from a corner kick: after a scramble in the area, Sule scored from close range to make it 2-1. The game changed again in the 77th minute when Pinna was sent off for a foul on Duarte, leaving the home side down to ten players. Venezia immediately capitalized on the numerical advantage and equalized 2-2 in the 84th minute: Duarte assisted Cortesi, who cut inside onto her left foot and curled a precise shot into the far corner beyond Capecchi’s reach. Despite being a player down, Lumezzane still found the strength to strike again. In the 88th minute, Sule received the ball inside the area and beat Pucova to restore the Rossoblù lead. Deep into stoppage time, with Venezia pushing forward in search of an equalizer, Burbassi sealed the result on the counterattack, making it 4-2.

At the end of the match between Venezia FC and Palermo, valid for Matchday 38 of Serie B and ending in a 2-0 victory for the orange-and-green side, head coach Giovanni Stroppa and forward John Yeboah shared their thoughts on the match.

Giovanni Stroppa, head coach of Venezia FC
“

Once again tonight, the boys delivered an extraordinary performance. In the first half we played with quality, although we lacked a bit of efficiency, while in the second half we were devastating. It’s a shame about the many shots that hit the posts and crossbar, but I’m truly happy with the performance — and not only that. We have the best defense and the best attack in the league. It couldn’t have gone any differently because, based on the football this team has played throughout the season, these numbers were bound to be on our side as well.

The only thing on my mind right now is tomorrow’s celebration in Piazza San Marco. I want to enjoy tomorrow together with our fans on the Grand Canal and in the square. The team’s strength was clear from the very beginning; we were able to express a certain quality of football very quickly. I said we would be among the protagonists of the season, and the team consistently maintained an incredible level of performance. The squad has reaped what it sowed throughout this journey.

Tonight I enjoyed the match almost like a spectator — it’s beautiful to watch this team play, and I feel immense pride for what has been achieved. From a technical standpoint, I also want to say that nothing was taken for granted. We went through a journey where we faced difficulties, and we experienced a season of continuous growth crowned by important results.”


“Today, in the first half, it wasn’t easy to find the right spaces to hurt Palermo. Then in the second half we kept pushing, found the goal, and won the match. We really wanted to win the game and finish first in the league.

There is an incredibly strong bond with the fans. Ever since the first match of the season in the Coppa Italia, I could hear the curva chanting my name. It’s a wonderful feeling, and today once again I felt all the affection from the supporters. Today I fought for the badge on my chest, and I dedicate this league title victory to the entire staff — from my teammates to all the invisible people working behind the scenes around the players. I also want to thank my family for their constant support.

Now I want to celebrate with the city. Tomorrow I expect all of you on the Grand Canal and in Piazza San Marco to experience a memorable day together
