"US Sassuolo Calcio announces that it has relieved coach Alberto Aquilani and his staff of their respective duties. The Club thanks the coach and his collaborators for their dedication and professionalism in leading the Neroverdi and wishes them the best of luck for the future ," the Emilian club wrote on its official website.
Sassuolo, another former Roma player emerges to replace Aquilani.
Two names are in pole position to replace Aquilani : Roberto D'Aversa and former Roma player and coach Vincenzo Montella , fresh from his experience as coach of the Turkish national team.
This is the second dismissal directly caused by a defeat against Roma . In fact, in the penultimate round of Serie A , Udinese had decided to relieve Kosta Runjaic of his duties following the heavy 5-2 defeat against the Giallorossi.
