A phone call, then silence. And finally, the resignation. Raffaele Palladino said goodbye to Florence after a few months, leaving Fiorentina without a technical guide at a delicate moment. The purple club suddenly found itself with a knot to untie: who will pick up a heavy legacy in a square that knows no half measures?
With a fourth consecutive year of commitments on three fronts and an environment that is far from serene, the company knew it had to focus on a strong profile that combined experience and the ability to handle pressure. A figure capable of bringing back compactness and vision, on and off the field.

And so the circle has closed on a familiar face. Stefano Pioli, fresh from a stint at Al Nassr-the team where Cristiano Ronaldo plays-is ready to set foot in Serie A again. The idea of returning to Italy had been teasing him for some time, and Florence has remained in his heart.
It is not just a technical choice: it is an emotional bet, a comeback aimed at rekindling the enthusiasm of a fan base that wants to dream again. It is no coincidence that, in recent weeks, Pioli’s name had also been approached by clubs of the caliber of Juventus and Atalanta, a sign of a reputation now established on the Italian scene.

Those who know Pioli know how close he is to Florence. His first adventure on the purple bench dates back to the two-year period 2017-2019. A period marked by ups and downs, but also by an event that left a deep mark: the tragic death of Davide Astori on March 4, 2018. In that dramatic moment, Pioli showed himself to be a man before being a coach, earning the affection and respect of the entire city.
After saying goodbye to Fiorentina and passing the baton to Vincenzo Montella, the big leap came: AC Milan. With the Rossoneri, Pioli wrote an important page of his career, bringing home a Scudetto that had been missing for 11 years. A consecration that came through patient work, based on trust and clear ideas.
