Vincenzo Montella signs new Fiorentina deal

Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Montella has agreed terms on a fresh contract, which is believed to be a four-year deal.

The club did not reveal the terms of the deal, however the 39-year-old will, according to president Andrea Della Valle, remain at the club for the long-term.

"This is just a formality, we reached an agreement a long time ago," the coach is quoted by UEFA.com as saying.

"I wish to thank the club and the fans for their support, but we are aware that a difficult task is waiting ahead for us now."

Fiorentina finished fourth in Serie A last season, Montella's first at the helm.
