In light of recent media reports in Italy, Fiorentina president Rocco Commisso has released the following statement:

“I keep on hearing and seeing new coaches and new players being linked with Fiorentina. Up until two days ago everyone was saying we had decided on a new coach, then last night yet another coach was said to have been chosen by me and the club.

“When I first joined during the transfer window I said I was amazed at all the fake news I was seeing and hearing about.

“At such a crucial and difficult stage of the season, I think these constant reports about supposed decisions I have made to replace this or that person do nothing but harm Fiorentina and our fans. I have not been in contact with anyone – by email, telephone or in person – and as the final decision is always mine I find it quite incredible that these fake stories keep appearing.

“People who do not have the best interests of Fiorentina and our fans at heart are tying to destabilize the club but we remain compact and we will continue on our path until the end of the season.

“Then of course, as I’ve always said, we will take stock and make our decisions with next season in mind. However, as Joe Barone reiterated yesterday, right now we are focused solely on ending the current campaign as well as possible with everybody’s full commitment to the cause and with our full support for the coach, the coaching staff and the players.”
