Torino close in on Giampaolo
Friday 12 June, 2009

Siena Coach Marco Giampaolo is ready to tear up his contract and drop down a division to train recently relegated Torino.

The Granata went down on the final day of the season and look likely to part with current incumbent Giancarlo Camolese.

Giampaolo is one of the most promising tacticians in Italian football and has also been linked with the Lazio job.

He comfortably kept Siena up this season and drew praise for the way he organised his team defensively.

Should Giampaolo reject the opportunity to join Torino, Urbano Cairo has former Palermo boss Stefano Colantuono on standby.

Delio Rossi was also under consideration until yesterday when he responded to speculation by saying: “Thank, but no thanks.”
