From one ex to another. The first exemption from Serie A 2019-2020 comes after seven days of the championship. This is not a team in the relegation zone, but a great veteran of a disappointing start to the season.
The Fiorentina he exonerated Giuseppe Iachini. In place of the former rapist midfielder of the 90s comes Cesare Prandelli, the gigliati’s former coach for five seasons between 2005 and 2010.
This is the official statement from the club: “ACF Fiorentina announces that it has replaced Giuseppe Iachini as coach of the First Team by Cesare Prandelli. Last season Beppe Iachini had to face a particularly difficult situation and, in a very difficult general context, managed to revive the team’s fortunes by closing the championship in tenth position. Unfortunately, after a careful and scrupulous analysis of the start of this new season and the results obtained so far, the Club believes that the best solution is to revoke the position of the current coach ”.
President Rocco commisso He explained his decision in these terms: “I want to personally thank Beppe Iachini, who, in the most difficult moment of last season, dragged and led the team. Unfortunately, the current results require a change in technical orientation, but my esteem and gratitude to the man and the professional remain completely unchanged. I also want to give my personal welcome to Mr. Prandelli. We believe that his skills, his professional career and his humanity, recognized and appreciated by the entire world of football, make Prandelli the best person to sit on the purple bench. I shared the choice of management to focus on Cesare Prandelli, as a new coach, considering him the ideal candidate due to his experience and his maximum motivation to return to work for our colors ”.
Iachini pays for a disappointing start to the championship or at least not in line with the expectations of President Commisso, who after last season’s painful salvation intends to return Fiorentina to the European zone.
After beating Torino on Matchday 1, Fiorentina scored just five points from their next seven games. Thus, the four-point miniseries between Udinese and Parma with the defeat of Roma in the middle was fatal for the coach who had replaced Vincenzo Montella just less than a year ago, fired in December 2019.
Prandelli will laugh on the Fiorentina bench after the break, on Sunday 22 November at the “Franchi” at 12.30 pm against Benevento.
