Fiorentina sack Pioli after winless start in Serie A

Fiorentina Sack Stefano Pioli After Winless Serie A Start

Fiorentina have dismissed head coach Stefano Pioli following one of their worst starts in Serie A history. The club announced the decision on Monday after Pioli's team failed to secure a win in their first 10 league matches.

Interim Coaching and Recent Performance

Daniele Galloppa, the Under-20s coach, has been appointed as the interim head coach. Under Pioli, Fiorentina sit at the bottom of Serie A with just four points from ten games (four draws and six losses).

Historical Context of the Poor Start

About Stefano Pioli

Pioli signed a three-year contract with Fiorentina this summer, beginning his second stint with the club, having managed them from June 2017 to April 2019. Despite his extensive Serie A coaching career across clubs like Bologna, Chievo, Inter, Lazio, Milan, and Parma, this is the first time Pioli has failed to win any league match while in charge.

Upcoming Fixture

Galloppa will lead Fiorentina in their Conference League match against Mainz 05 on Thursday. Fiorentina currently top their group after two games.

"The head coach was relieved of first-team duties on Monday, with Under-20s coach Daniele Galloppa appointed in the interim role."
"Fiorentina are yet to win in Serie A this season after 10 games, leaving them bottom of the Italian top-flight on four points."

Summary: Fiorentina parted ways with Stefano Pioli after a historically poor Serie A start, aiming for a turnaround under interim coach Galloppa.
