Fiorentina Sack Pioli After Winless Serie A Start
Fiorentina have dismissed head coach Stefano Pioli following one of their poorest starts in Serie A history. The club announced Pioli's departure on Monday and named Under-20s coach Daniele Galloppa as interim manager.
Season Performance
- Fiorentina remain winless after 10 Serie A games, sitting at the bottom of the league with just four points.
- This marks the third occasion the club has lost six of their first 10 league matches, matching records from the 1939/40 and 2001/02 seasons.
- They have also lost four of their first five home games for only the second time, the first being in 1977/78.
Pioli's Tenure
Pioli signed a three-year contract with Fiorentina in the summer, marking his second term with the club, having previously managed them from June 2017 to April 2019. Despite experience with several Serie A clubs including Bologna, Chievo, Inter, Lazio, Milan, and Parma, this is Pioli's first stint without a single league victory.
“The head coach was relieved of first-team duties on Monday, with Under-20s coach Daniele Galloppa appointed in the interim role.”
Upcoming Fixtures
Galloppa is set to lead Fiorentina in their upcoming Conference League match against Mainz 05 on Thursday. Fiorentina currently top their group phase after two games.
Summary: Fiorentina have removed Stefano Pioli after a historically poor start to the Serie A season, appointing Daniele Galloppa as interim head coach amid ongoing struggles and no league wins so far.
