Leonardo Semplici and Eusebio Di Francesco are leaving Serie A after just three games, having been sacked by Cagliari and Hellas Verona, respectively. The defeats against Genoa and Bologna on the final day of the season proved fatal.
Both teams have in fact ended up in a complicated situation despite having only played three matches. The Sardinians are stuck with just 1 point in the standings, which coincides with the draw in a comeback against Spezia. In addition to the resounding defeat against Milan, Semplici saw a sensational comeback from 2-0 to 2-3 at home against Genoa, a defeat that inevitably marked his adventure in rossoblu. The situation that saw Eusebio Di Francesco as the protagonist is even more difficult: 0 points in 3 matches and defeats against Sassuolo, Inter and Bologna.
Yesterday both decisions and the signature of the new arrivals. Walter Mazzarri, a well-known face in our championship, returns to coaching after his last experience at Torino which began in 2018 and ended with his dismissal in February 2020. Igor Tudor, on the other hand, will only sit on his second Serie A bench: his last adventure in Italy dates back to 2018-2019, at Udinese. Last season, finally, he was Andrea Pirlo's assistant coach at Juventus.
