Despite the victory in the last match against Genoa, Carlos Cuesta will no longer be in charge of Parma. «Following an internal discussion between the club and the coach – we read in a note from the club – it was agreed that there were no longer the conditions between the parties to continue the professional relationship, in particular regarding the development of the sporting project. In fact, the necessary conditions for the work undertaken to be able to continue were lacking and this shared decision was reached.” Tomorrow afternoon’s training will be entrusted to the club’s technical staff, awaiting the name of the new coach.
The Spaniard, in his second season in Serie A, paid for a disappointing start to the championship with just 4 points in 5 games (defeats against Cagliari and Juventus in the first two rounds, a draw with Monza, the defeat of Como, then the home victory against Genoa before the long break for national team commitments). The number of changes on the bench in Serie A therefore rose to three after five days. The first occurred after three rounds, with Paolo Vanoli replacing Fabio Grosso at Fiorentina: the defeats against Roma (0-4), Frosinone (0-3) and Turin (1-2) were fatal for the former world champion, leaving the Viola with zero shares despite an important signing campaign. The fourth day marks the fate of Domenico Tedesco: a point collected (drawing at the last minute with Sassuolo) in the face of defeats against Lazio, Atalanta and Napoli, with Bologna thus deciding to entrust the bench to Raffaele Palladino.
