    According to gianlucadiomarzio.com, former Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella has agreed personal terms with Sampdoria’s president Massimo Ferrero in order to take over at the club after that Walter Zenga was sacked this evening. The 41-year-old should sign a contract until 2017.

    Trouble is, the Aeroplanino is still under contract with Fiorentina and if Ferrero wants the former Roma and Catania boss  to become Sampdoria’s new manager, he will have to pay Montella’s € 4,5 million buy-out clause.

    Negotiations between the two clubs are reported to be imminent as Ferrero wants to announce the team’s new boss as soon as possible. In case he won’t be manage to find an agreement with the current Serie A leaders, Gigi Delneri is reported to be Ferrero's second option for Sampdoria's bench.
