According to Sky Sport Italia, Inzaghi has agreed a deal to take the management job and will sign over the next couple of days.

Tacopina is an ambitious lawyer who was already on the Roma board of directors as Vice-President, then bought out Bologna in 2014 along with Canadian Joey Saputo.

He terminated that contract by mutual consent in September 2015 following a row with Saputo and branched out on his own at Venezia.
