ROME, Oct. 3-- Davide Ballardini is poised to be the next coach of Bologna, with the Rossoblu finalizing Pierpaolo Bisoli's departure Monday evening. Rumors began to circulate on Monday morning that Bologna were looking to replace Bisoli with either Ballardini or Delio Rossi, after the club dropped to the bottom of the League on Sunday. From five games played, the team have just one point and have scored just two goals, with neither of those coming from open play. Marco Di Vaio, although positive of Bisoli's work, has previously hinted that there is a lack of self-belief from the dressing room that has been evident when they have fallen behind in games this season. Bisoli was heavily critical of his players after Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Udinese, claiming their mistakes made the game an uphill task, before confirming that he too felt his future was up for debate by the club's directors. Reports this evening now indicate that after Rossi declared himself out of the running that Ballardini is in prime contention to take the helm. |
