Ventura-Toro summer split

By Football Italia staff

Coach Giampiero Ventura’s summer exit from Torino is inevitable after a disappointing season, say reports.

The veteran boss took Toro into the Europa League last 32 last season, but has struggled to bring consistency from his team this term.

After Sunday’s 2-1 home defeat to Chievo, the Granata sit in 12th place with 28 points and La Stampa has reported that his time is up.

The newspaper writes that changing Coach at this stage of the season would be pointless, but that it’s inevitable at the end of the season.

The outlet says the club are finished with the 68-year-old, who has taken responsibility for the poor results.

Ventura has been with Toro since 2011 and has oversaw the club’s first Derby della Mole win in 20 years against Juventus last season.
