Crotone football has sacked the coach Franco Lerda.
The decision was taken in the aftermath of the 1-1 home draw with Foggia, but it was mainly motivated by the recent series of less than exciting results, with six points in five games, which slowed down the rossoblù's run-up to first place of the championship, currently occupied by Catanzaro.
As a replacement for Lerda, the company would have started contacts with Lamberto Zauli, a former Vicenza player in Serie B and former coach of Juventus Under 23.
