The 2022-23 campaign was a tale of two halves for Udinese, as the Bianconeri secured a mid-table 12th-place finish in Serie A. Under Andrea Sottil, the team enjoyed an explosive start, briefly soaring to third place following six consecutive wins, including dominant victories over Roma and Inter. However, a major slump and the season-ending injury to star forward Gerard Deulofeu proved too great to overcome, despite the consistent firepower of Beto, who finished as top scorer with 10 league goals. This season remains a defining chapter, notably as the Dacia Arena was the location where Napoli clinched their historic, long-awaited Serie A title.
