FCIN – Chinese management didn’t consult Italian management about Pioli’s sacking

FCInterNews.it report that the decision to sack Stefano Pioli with three games to go came straight from the management in China. In fact, there was no consultation with the Italian based management in Sporting Director Piero Ausilio, Vice President Javier Zanetti and Chief Football Administrator Giovanni Gardini until the decision was made. Ausilio was then handed the heavy task of telling Pioli that his six month tenure in charge was over as Inter would be relieving him of his duties with immediate effect.

Moreover, there was little communication regarding Walter Sabatini’s appointment as Suning’s technical coordinator as Suning begin a management restyle. The Italian management were only alerted shortly before his announcement in Nanjing, China despite the rumours about his appointment circulating the night before in the Italian media.
