Fiorentina deny Tudor rumours and Palladino problems

Fiorentina director Alessandro Ferrari insists the team is ‘united’ and denies that the Tuscans have contacted Igor Tudor to replace Raffaele Palladino.

Fiorentina have only earned one point in the last five matches, and sporting director Daniele Pradé strongly criticised the team on Monday after a 2-1 loss against Monza.

Corriere dello Sport reported that Pradé’s claims increased tension between the director and coach Palladino, prompting the Tuscans to contact Tudor.

However, Ferrari, Fiorentina’s General Director, denied the report during Michael Folorunsho’s unveiling press conference on Wednesday.

“Not only the group is united, but it is also convinced to end this bad moment,” Ferrari said, as quoted by Calciomercato.com.

“We are sixth in the table, and we’ve never had any problem with the coach or spoken to somebody else. Tough moments have come, but we’ll get out of this with the group, the coach, and the players we’ll sign. Folorunsho is one of those.”
