The fans were shocked to discover how, in order to join the Bianconeri, he rejected a major offer from Saudi Arabia. That’s who it is.
There is a habit in Italian football that is really difficult to eradicate. Since this sport, many decades ago, has become one of the most profitable and thriving industries in the world, the clubs have in fact begun to obsessively chase results.
A stance that is in some ways legitimate, because today the economic proceeds that come, for example, from access to a European competition, are fundamental to increase the sporting ambitions of a football club, and have funds to spend on the market.
At the same time, however, this continuous search for performance and results, she managed to make the job of coaching much more precarious than it was before. In fact, we are talking about one of the few professions in Italy, in which i contracts that are signed take on a relative value.
A coach can see terminated your agreement with the company at any time, or he may in any case be removed while continuing to receive his salary through the revocation of his position. And in many cases, it is an unfair dismissal, because all too often excessive blame is heaped on the person in charge of the team’s tactics.
Where does Udinese’s results crisis come from?
In Italy we have had presidents who have become famous precisely for following this trend to be “coach eaters”, just think of Zamparini in his Palermo days. Perhaps the most unfair dismissal in this first part of the championship was awarded to Andrea Sottil, who was forced to leave the Udinese bench.
Of course, the Bianconeri had had it with him a disastrous roadmap, with zero wins in ten games. At the same time, this sudden crisis of the team was above all due to the poor management of the summer transfer market by the club, which had sold its best players, without worrying about replacing them convincingly.
Incredible backstory revealed: “I had an offer from Saudi Arabia”
In the end Sottil paid, Cioffi arrived in his place, who actually seems, at least for the moment, managed to revive the team.
Is exactly Cioffi he granted an interview in recent days, in which he explained how the offer from the Bianconeri came at the right time, considering that he was about to sign with another club. Cioffi in fact declared: “The offers I had came from Egypt, Indonesia, Hungary and the last one from Saudi Arabia, which I would have signed for. Only the last details were missing. Then he called me Udinese. My first thought was ‘What an ass’.”
