Giampiero Ventura has hit back at “lies” and insisted he gave up on money because “Chievo and I wanted to achieve safety via different paths.”
The Coach was appointed last month to replace Lorenzo D’Anna, but lasted just four games – losing three and drawing one – before abruptly resigning on Sunday.
“This time I will not tolerate lies,” former Italy CT Ventura told news agency Ansa.

The Coach was appointed last month to replace Lorenzo D’Anna, but lasted just four games – losing three and drawing one – before abruptly resigning on Sunday.
“This time I will not tolerate lies,” former Italy CT Ventura told news agency Ansa.
“I arrived at Chievo because President Campedelli is a friend and the difficult moment for the team coincided with my strong desire to get back to coaching.
“I then decided to interrupt this rapport, not because of the results, but when I became certain that although we wanted to achieve the same end result – Serie A safety – the club and I wanted to get there via different paths.
“At that point, I couldn’t expect them to agree with my ideas, nor could I share their approach.
“I would’ve left Chievo even if we had beaten Bologna on Sunday. I gave up on a two-year contract and didn’t ask for much in return.”
This afternoon, Chievo appointed Domenico Di Carlo as their third Coach of the season.
