Fiorentina sacked Coach Fabio Grosso after three straight defeats in Serie A

It was expected. Fiorentina dismissed Coach Fabio Grosso on Sunday, September 6, 2026. The team began the 2026-27 season with three consecutive losses, leaving them with 0 points.  There were also reports of tension between director Paratici and the coach. Changing coaches seems to be a wise decision. Wishing Grosso the best in his future endeavors.

In summary, Fiorentina had a rough start to the season, suffering a heavy 4-0 defeat against Roma, losing 3-0 at home to newly promoted Frosinone, and falling 2-1 at home to Torino on Saturday.

As of Serie A Week 3, Fiorentina is in 20th place with 0 points and a negative goal difference of -8.
