The 2024–25 season is the second consecutive season for AC ChievoVerona in the fourth division in Italy. The team will participate in the Coppa Italia Serie D.

Overview

After the club went bankrupt in the summer of 2021, the club was dissolved and thus absent from the professional football scene. In August of the same year, veteran Chievo player Sergio Pellissier established the FC Clivense to revive the club again, where it started from the ninth division. The following year, Clivense won promotion to the fifth division, ending the season with promotion to the Serie D in 2023–24. On 10 May 2024, Clivense succeeded in purchasing the ChievoVerona brand at an auction, with Pellissier paying 300,000 euros for the rights to it.^[1]^[2] On 27 May, the club conducted a survey for members of Clevense about the name and colors, and it was decided that the club would change its name to AC Chievo Verona and keep the blue and white colors.^[3] On May 29, the club confirmed Riccardo Allegretti's departure, concluding their relationship that began in September 2021.^[4] On 9 June, Alessandro Pontarello was appointed coach of the team.^[5]

On 17 June, Omar Cissè renewed for one season.^[6] However, the Blue and Whites agreed to his departure to Caldiero Terme, also in the Serie D, on 18 July.^[7]

On 20 June, Chievo finalized the deal for defender Mattia Seno.^[8] On 28 June Chievo Verona brought in free agent winger Lorenzo Trillò.^[9] On 28 June, Chievo announced the signing of defender Maximiliano Uggè.^[10] On 13 July, captain Federico Tobanelli extended his contract for another season.^[11] On July 25, it was announced that midfielder Alexander Zodas would continue his career with the team for another season.^[12]

On 7 October, after a series of poor results the club agreed to part ways with head coach Alessandro Pontarollo.^[13] Two days later they appointed Riccardo Allegretti as the new manager, he return at the club after leading their predecessor FC Clivense from 2021 to 2024.^[14]
