Hellas Verona, a bad knockout that brings us to the end of the line

Hellas terminus, the Sunday defeat of “Bentegodi” againstEmpoli by Roberto D’Aversa should inevitably lead to the physiological exoneration of a Paolo Zanetti for several weeks now he has been without the helm of a team that has entered the relegation zone for the first time this season. Yet another failure, four goals conceded in the first 45 minutes, which brought the number of goals conceded in the first fifteen days of the championship to 37, an average of 2.46 goals conceded per game, a decidedly high and worrying figure, which cannot certainly be paired with a team with the goal of salvation in mind.

Matching game
The most viable path is the one that should lead to Salvatore Bocchettia coach still under contract until 2027 with the club from via NL and still stuck after the salvation achieved in tandem with Marco Zaffaroni in the 2022-2023 season after the play-off with Spezia in Reggio Emilia. A choice that could hide the company’s desire not to put a third coach on the payroll in a phase of potential transition of the club’s top management although in the post-match conference the sporting director Sogliano (who presented himself to speak in Zanetti’s place) did not, at least in words, , definitively closed to the potential choice of a new profile and not even to the permanence (in any case rather unlikely) of the former Venezia and Empoli coach.

One or two days
“We will take 24-48 hours to decide”, these are the key words of Sean Sogliano which will therefore open up to a crucial two days for the continuation of the season Hellas Verona awaited now by the treacherous transfer of Parmain what will be a new direct clash for salvation which will take on a rather marked importance since the calendar will subsequently present the prohibitive commitments with Milan at home and Bologna away.
