Although he was still on course for promotion with Brescia Calcio, Filippo Inzaghi has now been sacked. The reason is interesting.
Lecce 41 points, Pisa 40, Brescia 39. Actually, everything is still possible in Serie B for the traditional club, but several point losses have now resulted in a small coaching quake: Filippo Inzaghi, who took over in June and signed a two-year contract, is out of a job.
A 0-0 draw against cellar-dweller Cosenza finally put club boss Massimo Cellino on edge. According to him, the club around veteran Rodrigo Palacio has even “lost competitiveness”.
This was Inzaghi’s fifth coaching stint since 2014. While “Pippo” still overshadowed his brother Simone as a player, the situation has obviously changed. Inzaghi the second is on course for the championship with Inter Milan one league higher.
