Coaching career
On 27 April 2022, he was appointed caretaker of Venezia for the final five games of the club's 2021–22 Serie A campaign.[7] He failed to escape the club from relegation and was not offered the permanent job as a consequence, thus moving back to his previous role as youth coach. On 1 November 2022, following the dismissal of Ivan Javorčić as head coach, Soncin was again appointed interim head coach.[8] He guided the club for a single game, a 0–1 defeat to Como, before being replaced by new permanent head coach Paolo Vanoli on 7 November 2022.[9]
