S.S.C. Napoli returned to Serie A, following a couple of years in Serie B, where the club had rebuilt itself following the disastrous 1997-98 season, when it scored merely 14 points from 34 games.
Napoli was relegated once more, when a win against Fiorentina in the final round proved redundant due to all the other teams involved in the battle (to avoid relegation) also winning their matches; including a shocking win for Lecce against title-chasers Lazio. The investment in several new players came back to haunt Napoli when those players did not perform, causing bankruptcy three years later.

The 2000–01 Serie A was the 99th season of top-tier Italian football, the 69th in a round-robin tournament. It was contested by 18 teams, for the 13th consecutive season since 1988–89.
The 2000–01 season was the 101st season in Società Sportiva Lazio's history and their 13th consecutive season in the top-flight of Italian football. Lazio were unable to defend their Serie A title won in 2000 after finishing third, but won the Supercoppa Italiana.
Parma Associazione Calcio had a moderately strong season in 2000–01, managing to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, but also losing the final of Coppa Italia and dropping out of the UEFA Cup too early for the board's liking, ultimately leading to coach Alberto Malesani being let go during the season.
During the 2000-01 season AS Roma competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup.
The 2000–01 season was Juventus Football Club's 103rd in existence and 99th consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football.
Associazione Calcio Milan had a poor season in 2000–01, finishing 6th in Serie A with 49 points, and only the scoring touch of Ukrainian striker Andriy Shevchenko saved them from complete humiliation.
During the 2000–01 season Fiorentina competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup.
S.S.C. Napoli continued its steady decline with another lacklustre season. Once more, goalscoring was at a premium, with only 28 goals being scored in the 34 league games. Coach Luigi Simoni was sacked and replaced by youth team coach Vincenzo Montefusco, who led the team to the Coppa Italia final against Vicenza, where Napoli won at home thanks to Fabio Pecchia's goal, but lost 3-0 away from home, and therefore failed to win the trophy. The 13th place in the domestic league was the worst for 14 years, and one year on, Napoli was ultimately relegated.
Associazione Sportiva Roma was reinvigorated under new coach Zdeněk Zeman, who recently had been coaching arch rivals Lazio. Zeman brought his attacking 4–3–3 with him, resulting in Roma scoring 67 goals, but also conceding 42, an extreme rarity in defensive-minded Italian football. Roma finished fourth, three places above Lazio in the table. That was the first time it had happened in five years, which delighted the Roma board, and Zeman stayed on for a further season. The season also saw the international breakthrough of former youth-team product Francesco Totti, who at 21 was ready for increased responsibility and captaincy, responding with 13 league goals from a position on the left-wing of the attack. Also noticeable was new signing Cafu's offensive skills as a right-wing back, granting him a reputation among the world's top wing backs.
Reggina Calcio were relegated following losing three key players in the summer of 2000. Despite goalkeeper Massimo Taibi being in full form following his Manchester United debacle, Reggina had serious goal scoring problems without departed striker Mohamed Kallon. With Davide Dionigi arriving from Sampdoria mid-season, Reggina solved that problem, and Dionigi's six goals led to a spareggio for the Serie A stay, a double-header Reggina lost. Coach Franco Colomba was not blamed for the relegation, and was given the all-clear to stay for a further season, with Reggina one of the favourites to bounce back to the top domestic division.
Atalanta B.C. returned to Serie A following a two-year absence, and immediately established itself on the top half of the table, finishing in 7th place. Coach Giovanni Vavassori was hailed as the main contributor to the success, having come from the youth side a couple of years before, first promoting the club, and then having such a successful inaugural Serie A campaign. Inter-owned Nicola Ventola scored ten league goals, enough to persuade Inter to take him back, and playmaker Cristiano Doni got his proper breakthrough as well. Experienced Massimo Carrera held the defence together, and was also widely praised, while goalkeeper Ivan Pelizzoli was signed by champions Roma.
The 2013–14 Coppa Italia, also known as TIM Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 67th edition of the competition. As in the previous year, 78 clubs have taken part in the tournament. Lazio were the cup holders. Napoli were the winners, thus qualifying for the group stage of the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League.
The 2014–15 Coppa Italia, also known as TIM Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 68th edition of the national cup in Italian football. Napoli were the defending champions, having won the previous year's final, but were eliminated in the semi-finals by Lazio. Juventus emerged victorious with a 2–1 win in extra time, achieving a record tenth title.
The 2019–20 Coppa Italia was the 73rd edition of the national cup in Italian football.
