It has been comfirmed that former Ac Milan Midfilder Gennaro Gattuso has been fired by Palermo and Beppe Iachini comfirmed as the new Coach of the Serie B
outfit.
The Milan legend has
been sacked following the 2-1 loss at Bari on Tuesday night. The Rosanero,
favourites for promotion, collected just seven points from six games under the summer
arrival.
“It is with real and
deep regret that I inform you that Gennaro Gattuso has been replaced from the
post of head Coach of the first team,” read a statement from President Maurizio
Zamparini.
“There is regret given
the respect I have for Gattuso the man and his great work ethic.
“Unfortunately he and
I, together, perhaps took too big a step in giving him his first experience as
a Coach in a club and a place as demanding as Palermo.
“The results have
proved us wrong.
“I have assigned
Giuseppe Iachini the task of taking us back to Serie A, a Coach and a man who I
know and I have appreciated since he was my captain at Venezia, who we took to
the top flight.”
