La questione allenatore tiene ancora banco in casa Torino. Ma la situazione potrebbe cambiare proprio in questa settimana
Who will be the coach of Torino next season? This is the question everyone is asking. At home granata the situation is still uncertain at the moment, but this week may be the decisive one to resolve the question. After the match against Roma, which closed Torino’s Serie A 2024/2025, everything seemed to be written: Cairo had used heavy words against Vanoli’s performance so much so that his exoneration seemed imminent: “I expected much more, I am disappointed with Vanoli, we will make all the necessary evaluations. Who is it that makes the team play? Who puts it together? He has his own responsibilities. It is not only Cairo who is responsible. When I hear the coach say that Bologna has ideas, Atalanta has ideas, Como has ideas….”
L’incontro della svolta
Then the meeting staged Thursday in Milan has, in part, changed the cards on the table. the exoneration was not there and any decision has been postponed. Vanoli’s exoneration no longer appears to be as obvious as it seemed at the beginning of last and a second meeting, again between Cairo and Vanoli, has been scheduled just in the next few days. And this time the coach should be told of the decision.
Cosa succede ora?
At the moment, Paolo Vanoli is still the coach of Torino but it is not certain that he will be in the new season, also because in the meantime contacts are also continuing with Marco Baroni, the main candidate to replace the Varese coach: Maurizio Sarri is back at Lazio and Baroni will soon be free. On his trail, however, is also Fiorentina, which is looking for Raffaele Palladino’s replacement. Meanwhile, Cairo is also pondering other profiles, such as Daniele De Rossi, Alberto Gilardino and Rino Gattuso, as well as the possibility of confirming Vanoli. The next few days should be the ones of truth.
