It was a very disappointing return for Stefano Pioli. After a first stint between 2017 and 2019, with 27 wins, 25 draws and 22 defeats in 74 matches, the Italian coach returned last July to Fiorentina, keen to return to his native country and relaunch his career after a mixed experience in Saudi Arabia with Al-Nassr. But his new adventure on the Viola bench was short-lived. The Italian club officially dismissed him from his duties this Tuesday, after another defeat in the league two days earlier, against Lecce away (0-1).
“ACF Fiorentina announces that Stefano Pioli has been relieved of his duties as coach of the men’s first team as of today. The club would like to thank the coach and his staff for the professionalism they demonstrated throughout their work. The technical direction of the first team has been temporarily entrusted, from this afternoon’s training, to Daniele Galloppa.we can read in the press release from the Italian team, bottom of Serie A with only four points and no success.
