Sampdoria board resigns

By Football Italia staff

Sampdoria have reportedly sparked a chain reaction with the entire Board of Directors resigning and President Massimo Ferrero awaiting buyers.

Ferrero had already stated he was ready to sell the club last year, with negotiations that fell through for a sale to an American group fronted by Gianluca Vialli.

According to Il Secolo XIX newspaper, vice-president Paolo Fiorentina announced his resignation this week and it started a chain effect.

Now all the Board of Directors have resigned and President Ferrero will try to rebuild.

He is still looking for new buyers, but insisted he will only sell to ‘credible’ investors.
