Fiorentina dismisses coach Fabio Grosso after three straight Serie A losses
Summary

Fiorentina officially parted ways with head coach Fabio Grosso on September 6, 2026, following a winless start to the Serie A season. The decision came after three consecutive league defeats, including a 4-0 loss to Roma, a 3-0 home defeat by Frosinone, and a 2-1 loss to Torino on September 5. While the club made significant investments in the squad this summer, the team secured only one goal across the opening matches while conceding nine. Reports indicate tension between Grosso and director Fabio Paratici contributed to the dismissal. This marks the second consecutive season that the Tuscans have fired their coach within the opening month of the campaign. The club has not yet named a successor ahead of their upcoming fixture against Venezia scheduled for September 11.
