Fiorentina confirm new coach

Fiorentina have named Vincenzo Montella as their new manager, signing a two-year deal. The Tuscan giants have been looking for a new manager since sacking Delio Rossi in May after his touchline brawl with Adem Ljajic. Now Montella has been unveiled as the new boss of the Viola, after he stood down as Catania boss earlier this month. Former Roma striker Montella took charge of Catania last summer and guided them to an excellent mid-table finish.
