Serie C side Bari have sacked Coach Giovanni Cornacchini after a poor start to the season.

Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis bankrolled the resurrection of Bari in the summer of 2018, entrusting his son Luigi to run them.

Cornacchini was handed the reins to get the Biancorossi out of Serie D last season, and he accomplished that as they finished top of their group. 

However, the 54-year-old has been relieved of his duties after opening the 2019-20 campaign with just two wins from five games, despite being among the favourites for promotion.
