Bologna set to sack Domenico Tedesco, replacement identified

Serie A side Bologna have become the second team in the Italian top-flight to sack their manager, with Domenico Tedesco set to part ways after just four games into the campaign.

So far this season, the Rossoblu are yet to win a single game and have picked up only a point so far.

La Gazzetta dello Sport report that after evaluations, a decision has been made to sack the Belgian, who replaced Vincenzo Italiano over the summer.

The Rossoblu want to make sure they do not have Tedesco in-charge for their next game. Key contact has been made for Raffaele Palladino and a contract has been readied for the Italian too.

As for Tedesco, the clubโ€™s management held a meeting with the manager today and expressed concern over recent results. Tedesco took responsibility and admitted he has been struggling to find solutions.

This convinced Bologna into making a decision, with Palladino now expected to step in.

Other candidates like Stefano Pioli, Igor Tudor and Roberto Dโ€™Aversa were considered but Palladino is the most appealing option right now.
