While Torino is stalling for Paolo Vanoli, Venezia is already looking ahead: Eusebio Di Francesco has been chosen on the bench
The movements on the benches continue, in view of the next Serie A. Turin which, after 3 years, bids farewell to Ivan Juric. His successor should be Paolo Vanoli. Chosen for some time, however it has not yet been made official. Vanoli communicated to Venezia that he wanted to leave, despite the contract expiring in 2026. So the lagoon players, without waiting for Toro, started looking for a replacement and chose Eusebio Di Francesco. The negotiation was successful, despite Empoli’s courtship. It will be made official soon. Venezia who therefore had no problems and immediately took action.
Di Francesco’s greeting
Di Francesco who this season was unable to save Frosinone, relegating them on the last day. Precisely in these hours, he greeted the Ciociaro people with these words: “I cried at the end of the last match and in the following days, even today if I think about it I feel a lot of 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 towards referees and opponents. We honored football as I understand it. The context around us, however, is a little less so.” Now Venezia awaits him.
There is no negotiation
If Venezia went ahead with the choice of coach, it means that Vanoli (still on their payroll) is close to Torino. But the situation is clear and there is no negotiation: if Toro pays the clause from 1 million euros, Vanoli is grenade. But Taurus, no one knows why, is stalling. Antonelli, the sporting director of Venezia, spoke clearly: “Torino is trying to make a negotiation, but there is no need to make a negotiation. It’s a clause.” Cairo instead said: “We’ll have the coach soon, I’d say we’re there.” The situation is clear and outlined: Taurus must pay the clause. But the longer you wait, the later the market will be planned.
