Reports suggest Palermo could be about to sack Coach Beppe Iachini for the second time this season.
The Rosanero have endured a tumultuous campaign even by the standards of notoriously trigger-happy President Maurizio Zamparini.
Iachini began the season as the longest-serving Coach of the Zamparini era, but was sacked despite a 1-0 win over Chievo.
Reports suggest Palermo could be about to sack Coach Beppe Iachini for the second time this season.
The Rosanero have endured a tumultuous campaign even by the standards of notoriously trigger-happy President Maurizio Zamparini.
Iachini began the season as the longest-serving Coach of the Zamparini era, but was sacked despite a 1-0 win over Chievo.
Davide Ballardini took over after Iachini’s dismissal, and was also sacked after a win, having fallen-out with the squad.
Fabio Viviani then took over on a caretaker basis, before Argentinian Guillermo Barros Schelotto was appointed as the new permanent Coach.
However, he didn’t have the correct qualifications to take over a Serie A team, so Giovanni Tedesco was the official Coach while Palermo tried to sort out paperwork.
It was ultimately decided that Schelotto wouldn’t be allowed to take over, so he left the club in favour of a return to Boca Juniors.
Giovanni Bosi then stepped in, but was fired after just one game, a 3-1 defeat to Torino, and Iachini returned to the bench.
Zamparini promised not to sack the tactician for a second time in one season, but has been publicly critical of the Coach after two defeats since his return.
Now Sky and Tuttomercatoweb are reporting that, after a meeting today, there is a growing rift between the two men.
It’s thought that Iachini is once again on the verge of the sack, though he may be given a stay of execution until after the Napoli game.
