PEZZOLANO THE LATEST TASKED WITH TAKING WATFORD UP

August 09, 2025

PAULO PEZZOLANO carried the hopes of 10 million fans while working for Brazilian legend Ronaldo so his latest gig with Watford should be a doddle, right?

- By Mike Walters

The Uruguayan, 42, is Watford’s latest left-field pick to mount a promotion challenge from under the radar.

And even the most forensic analysts agree that absolutely anything is possible at Vicarage Road this season.

Pezzolano’s appointment in May was greeted with lazy, stereotypical gags about revolving doors when the 21st different head coach in 13 years under Gino Pozzo’s ownership slipped into the cockpit.
