Chievo President Luca Campedelli hopes Coach Eugenio Corini will stay next season. “As long as he doesn’t ask for Zlatan Ibrahimovic…”

The tactician took over from Mimmo Di Carlo on October 2 and steered the Flying Donkeys to mid-table security.

However, it has been rumoured he is unwilling to extend his time on the Bentegodi bench unless the squad is improved.

“We will meet up with Corini next week and see if we have enough common ground to continue this rapport,” President Campedelli told TG Gialloblu.

“We’ll try to make him happy with his requests, as long as he doesn’t ask for Ibrahimovic…”

Chievo also confirmed they will renew 34-year-old Sergio Pellissier’s contract after he missed the end of the season with an ankle injury.
