“I took the opportunity to coach a historic club like Udinese with the enthusiasm of a child,” Oddo wrote on Instagram.

“Self-sacrifice, professionalism and heart were the driving force for me and my staff during the positive period that we experienced and even more in this last negative period.

“We tried everything to get out of these difficulties, certainly some things didn’t go the right way, we’ve definitely made some mistakes but always with a positive attitude.

“You gave us the biggest boost with your unconditional support, which never wavered even in this darkest hour.

“The Friulian people and the Udinese fans showed me esteem and great affection from day one. I arrived as a guest and I leave as a friend.

“Thank you, Udine. My technical staff and I will never forget Friuli.”
