Bologna sack head coach Delio Rossi

Bologna have called time on Delio Rossi's stint in charge of the club.

The 55-year-old was appointed in May following the Rossoblu's promotion back to Serie A.

However, Rossi has now paid the price for a run of form that has seen 18th-placed Bologna collect just two wins from their opening 10 matches this season.

It has also been confirmed that Under-17 coach Paolo Magnani will oversee training on an interim basis.

Reports in Italy have claimed that former Italy international Roberto Donadoni is the leading contender to replace Rossi.
