Zamp: Ballardini? I wanted Miha!

By Football Italia staff

Maurizio Zamparini tells Davide Ballardini that Sinisa Mihajlovic was his first choice as the Coach is reportedly on the verge of leaving Palermo.

Sport Mediaset claims Ballardini was unhappy with Palermo’s work in the transfer market over the summer, prompting him to discuss his resignation with sporting director Daniele Faggiano on Friday and Zamparini to accuse the trainer of being ungrateful.

“I don’t care if he’s satisfied or not, we’ll see what he does,” the President remarked to Corriere dello Sport.

“He’s also under observation! With all due respect to Ballardini, I’d contacted Mihajlovic and he would’ve come willingly, but he’d already begun working for Torino.”
