Another piece in the mosaic of Serie A benches. Eusebio Di Francesco chose Venezia to leave after the disappointment of relegation with Frosinone. The coach from Pescara, born in 1969, who had also been sought by Empoli, has accepted the bench of a newly promoted team for the second season in a row. A two-year deal is ready for him. Negotiation on the details that will be defined in the next few hours. Empoli should now focus on William Viali, who last season led Cosenza to safety in Serie B.
Meanwhile, Di Francesco wanted to leave a message to the Ciociaria fans on the Frosinone website. “Friends from Ciociaria, what can I say… As soon as I arrived in Frosinone you immediately made me feel like one of the family, above all thanks to your hospitality and the respect shown. You taught me the love for your shirt and your colours. These are aspects , which make you unique in my eyes. It was an intense and in some ways positive season, with exciting matches, others perhaps not ending as we would have liked. We reached a historic milestone together, the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup. I cried at the at the end of the last match and in the following days, even today when I think about it I feel so much anger and disappointment. It was an undeserved and unfair relegation, for the courage shown on the pitch, for the loyalty shown inside and out, for the fairness shown in the team. comparisons between referees and opponents. We honored football as I understand it. The context around us, however, a little less. I want to thank Director Angelozzi for giving me this opportunity: last July we chose each other, I chose the great professional but above all the man. A huge thank you to President Stirpe, a person with great human values and unique sensitivity.”
