Before, “Inzagoal” would flash the opposing nets. Now, he runs clubs aimed at accession to the elite of Italian football. Filippo Inzaghi signed up with Palermo in mid-June. The Transalpine coach was presented to supporters of the Sicilian club this Thursday. They are hundreds of having massaged at the foot of the Renzo-Barbera stadium and they gave voice.
Pink scarf, the color of the Italian stable, around the neck, “Pippo” was ovationed. He then addressed the crowd before jumping in front of the songs sung by the tifossia. The wait is huge in Palermo.
The former club of Javier Pastore or Edinson Cavani has not put the crampons in Serie A since 2017. Administratively demoted to fourth division in 2019, the Palermitains climbed the ladder, but failed twice during the elite accession during the last two years.
To cross this CAP, who better than the Italian climb specialist? If Simone Inzaghi led the Inter to two Champions League finals, her brother shines on a more modest floor. In 2017, he had led Venice to the second division before taking Benevento to Serie three years later.
The ex-star of AC Milan had been downgraded directly, which perhaps counted in his choice to leave Pisa this summer, when he had won second place from D2 and therefore the climb after the past season.
