After appointing Pablo Doffo as head coach earlier in the day, Sliema Wanderers have continued to reshape their sporting structure by announcing the return of club legend Mark Scerri, who takes on the role of Technical Director.
The appointment marks a significant homecoming for one of the most iconic figures in the Wanderers’ modern history. A product of Sliema’s renowned nursery, Scerri spent his entire playing career in the royal blue jersey, going on to captain the club and establish himself as a symbol of loyalty, leadership and professionalism before his retirement.
Scerri’s deep understanding of the club’s philosophy, culture and identity is viewed as a major asset as Sliema look to build a clearer technical pathway across all levels. His transition from youth product to first team captain, and now into a key leadership role off the pitch, reflects the continuity the club is aiming to restore.
The move has been warmly welcomed within the Wanderers community, with Scerri’s return seen as both a strategic and emotional boost. His experience, knowledge of the Maltese game and close connection to the club are expected to play a central role in shaping Sliema’s footballing direction moving forward.
With a new head coach and a Technical Director who embodies the club’s values, Sliema Wanderers appear intent on laying solid foundations for the future, combining fresh ideas with a strong sense of identity rooted in their history.
The appointment of Mark Scerri represents another important step in a busy day for the club, as the Wanderers look to turn the page and embark on a new chapter aimed at restoring stability, ambition and success.
