The expected news has arrived from the Apennines - Ivan Jurić is no longer the coach of Atalanta.
The Croatian expert was fired after "La Dea" failed to win in their last seven matches in Serie A, while our Nikola Krstović's club has already found his replacement.
According to Italian media, it will be Rafaele Paladino, a young expert who led Fiorentina very well last season, and Monza before that.
"After a heavy defeat against Sassuolo, the Atalanta management decided to make a change and fired Ivan Jurić, for whom the Champions League victory against Marseille was not enough. On the other hand, Paladino signed a contract with the club from Bergamo, an official announcement is now awaited," writes "Mediaset".
For the Croatian expert, this is the third dismissal in the last 12 months - he left Roma after 12 games, Southampton after 16 and now Atalanta after 15.
Paladino was born in Naples, as a player he wore the jerseys of Genoa and Parma, among others, and at the end of last season he somewhat unexpectedly parted ways with Fiorentina, which he left in sixth place in Serie A.
