Bucci not fitting in with Empoli
EMPOLI have taken the drastic step of dropping first-choice goalkeeper Luca Bucci, after a dismal start to the Serie A season.
Bucci has picked the ball out of the back of the net ten times in three league games, and coach Daniele Baldini believes that a custodial change is necessary.
"It has been painful to tell Bucci these things," said Baldini.
"But we expected from him an experienced figure to steady a young defence and also a good technical keeper.
"I don't want to question his technical ability but I think he has not established a relationship with the team.
"For this reason I have been obliged to talk to him honestly, because Empoli have a huge will to win but we need everyone to pull in the same direction."
