🚨 Top club in free fall: former player tasked with saving Fiorentina | OneFootball

AC Fiorentina is currently going through very tough times. In terms of sports, the Italian club has been in free fall since the start of the season. This is now supposed to be stopped by appointing a former player to the vacant coaching position.

Only hired before the current season, Stefano Pioli had to pack his bags at Robin Gosens' club this past Tuesday. Things were really going poorly under the 60-year-old coach as well.

The participant in this year's Conference League simply can't get a foothold in the league. Fiorentina hasn't won a single league match yet—and that's up to the beginning of November.

Instead, after ten defeats and with four points, the traditional club currently sits at the bottom of the Serie A table. Now, a familiar face is supposed to turn things around.

Paolo Vanoli played for Fiorentina from 2000 to 2002 and most recently coached FC Torino until June 2025. There, he only managed an average of 1.18 points per game. If he wants to save AC, it will probably take a bit more than that.
