RUI COSTA BACKS TERIM

The Viola midfielder revealed that he sees the Turkish coach as the right man to bring silverware to Artemio Franchi.

"I am in Florence since 1993 and I have not win anything," said Rui Costa. "I feel we can build something important with Terim."

The 28-year-old player is also worried about the president Vittorio Cecchi Gori, because no one knows if he wants to continue at Fiorentina or sell the club.

It was reported that the Italian business group Benetton were interested in the Viola club, but Cecchi Gori did not confirm this interest.

Meanwhile the left-back Paolo Vanoli will not play on Sunday afternoon because his father died some days ago and the coach thinks Vanoli needs a few days break. The defender will be replaced by Moreno Torricelli.
