Paulo Sousa’s situation at Fiorentina is increasingly tenuous after banners appeared overnight urging the Coach to resign.
The tactician has been rather pessimistic this season compared to the last, confessing he was no longer able to “dream” and suggesting Federico Bernardeschi belonged at “a more ambitious club.”
His contract is due to expire at the end of the season and it’s widely believed there will be no extension, but the situation could come to a head before that.

His contract is due to expire at the end of the season and it’s widely believed there will be no extension, but the situation could come to a head before that.
There are reports he could be fired if Fiorentina suffer a heavy defeat at Inter on Monday evening.
The fans are also turning against him, as banners appeared overnight in Florence on the gates of the Stadio Franchi.
‘Sousa, you don’t think you’re a hypocrite? So quit! Damn Gobbo’ read one (Gobbo is an insulting term for Juventus, here referencing his past in a Bianconeri jersey.
‘We dream and create pressure… you Sousa just create depression.’
The banners were signed by a group from the Curva Fiesole.
