Gennaro Gattuso Quits As Fiorentina Manager Days After Appointment, See Why.
Truetells Nigeria reports that Gennaro Gattuso has left Fiorentina just 23 days after accepting the job to become the new manager.
The 43-year-old manager was announced as the new Viola coach on May 25, following his departure from Napoli – where he failed to guide his side to the Champions League.
Gattuso was set to officially take over on July 1 ahead of the new season and had already started discussions over transfer plans at the club. But he reportedly fell out with club owner Rocco Commisso over transfer targets.
A club statement read on Thursday June 17 read: ‘ACF Fiorentina and Mister Rino Gattuso, by mutual agreement, have decided not to follow up on the previous agreements and therefore not to start the next football season together.’
