Andrea Pirlo is no longer the coach of Karagümrük, a Turkish Serie A team based in Istanbul. This was announced by the club itself, two days after the 4-1 defeat at Trabzonspor. Hurryet reports it on its online edition. "Since the collaboration of Pirlo and his team with Karagümrük cannot continue next season - reads the note - the club has informed the coach that the relationship is interrupted here, so that he and his collaborators can plan the future".
Karagümrük is ninth in the Superlig, and despite declaring himself "satisfied with the past season with Andrea", the choice comes three days before the end of the championship, "so that we can plan the future". For the Turkish media, in any case, it is not excluded that Pirlo remains in Turkey: the former Juventus, world champion in 2006, would have received the offer of Rizespor, a team just promoted to the top flight.
