Prospective Fiorentina owner Rocco Commisso has reportedly made Luciano Spalletti his first choice to replace Vincenzo Montella as Coach.
Commisso is on the verge of buying Fiorentina for €200m, and Tuttomercatoweb writes the Italo-American billionaire has drawn up plans for a new-look Viola.
They include the appointment of Spalletti, who led Inter to successive Champions League qualifications but is unemployed after leaving the Nerazzurri last week.

Commisso is on the verge of buying Fiorentina for €200m, and Tuttomercatoweb writes the Italo-American billionaire has drawn up plans for a new-look Viola.
They include the appointment of Spalletti, who led Inter to successive Champions League qualifications but is unemployed after leaving the Nerazzurri last week.
The website adds ex-Milan Coach Gennaro Gattuso and Roma old boy Eusebio Di Francesco are also candidates to succeed Montella.
Umberto Gandini, who spent 23 years as technical director at Milan before lasting two years as Roma chairman, would be appointed as CEO in this set-up.
Ricky Massara would be given the role of sporting director as he looks set to leave Roma, with Gianluca Petrachi taking over in the capital.
Failing those appointments, TMW writes Commisso has lined up former Milan man Massimiliano Mirabelli and Pierpaolo Marino – once of Napoli and Atalanta – as alternatives for sporting director.
