Fiorentina Sack Stefano Pioli After Winless Serie A Start
Fiorentina has dismissed head coach Stefano Pioli amid one of the club's worst Serie A starts. The team remains winless after 10 matches, sitting at the bottom of the league with only four points.
Coaching Change
The club confirmed Pioli's removal from first-team duties on Monday. Daniele Galloppa, the Under-20s coach, has been named interim head coach.
Historical Context
- Fiorentina has lost six of their first 10 Serie A games for only the third time in their history, after the 1939/40 and 2001/02 seasons.
- They have also lost four of their first five home games this season, a situation last seen in 1977/78.
Pioli's Tenure and Record
Pioli signed a three-year contract this summer, starting his second tenure at Fiorentina (previously June 2017 – April 2019). Despite managing several Serie A clubs including Bologna, Chievo, Inter, Lazio, Milan, and Parma, this season marks the first time Pioli has not won a league match with any club he has coached.
Upcoming Fixture
Galloppa will lead Fiorentina in their Conference League match against Mainz 05 on Thursday, with the team currently leading their group after two games.
