Official: Udinese appoint Del Neri

By Football Italia staff

Udinese have officially confirmed that Luigi Del Neri will be Beppe Iachini’s replacement on the bench.

The Zebrette fired Iachini on Sunday after a poor start to the season, and the former Juventus Coach immediately emerged as favourite for the job.

“Udinese Calcio announce they have entrusted Luigi Del Neri with the first team,” a statement on Udinese’s official website read.

“The Friulian Coach has signed a one-year contract, with the option for a second, and will be unveiled at a Press conference on Tuesday at 12:00 CET (11:00 BST), live on Udinese TV.”

Del Neri’s last post was at Verona, but he was unable to prevent the Butei from slipping into Serie B.
