Fiorentina has appointed Giuseppe Iachini as head coach to replace Cesare Prandelli, who resigned after a disappointing second spell in charge, the Serie A club said on Wednesday.
Iachini had succeeded Vincenzo Montella as manager in December 2019 but was sacked last November and replaced by Prandelli, who returned for a second stint following a spell between 2005-2010.
But the veteran coach stepped down on Tuesday after overseeing just five league wins to leave Fiorentina languishing in 14th.
