'I return with great enthusiasm' says coach sacked 3 mths ago

Redazione Ansa

(ANSA) - Palermo, February 15 - Palermo have announced the re-hiring of coach Beppe Iachini three months after he was fired as 'coach-eating' President Maurizio Zamparini continued to show his appetite for change.
    The Rosaneri have been having a torrid season of changes on the bench and Giovanni Bosi has been replaced after only one game in charge.
    Iachini was originally sacked on November 10 to be replaced by Davide Ballardini, who was then fired on January 11.
    Guillermo Barros Schelotto was brought in but did not have the right paperwork, so Bosi and then Giovanni Tedesco filled in on the bench.
    Schelotto then left on February 9 after having his paperwork refused by UEFA and Bosi was appointed a day later.
    However, a 3-1 defeat to Torino at home in Bosi's first game has led fiery owner Zamparini to bring back Iachini.
    "I return with great enthusiasm", said Iachini.
    Palermo are in 15th place in Serie A on 26 points, four above the drop zone.
