Beretta considers Lecce job
Saturday 21 June, 2008

Mario Beretta admits he is in line to take over at Serie A new boys Lecce after contract talks with Giuseppe Papadopulo broke down.

The Salentini achieved promotion this month after a play-off victory over Albinoleffe, but are not set to stick with current Coach Papadopulo.

“Will I be on the Lecce bench? We’ll see what happens,” mused Beretta on Radio Kiss Kiss.

“There is something in it, certainly, but at the moment nothing concrete. We’ll have to wait and see.”

Beretta rescued Siena from relegation to mid-table comfort last term, but was not offered a new deal by the club.

Meanwhile, Brescia have announced they are standing by Coach Serse Cosmi despite their play-off semi-final defeat to little Albinoleffe.

“With reference to certain articles that have appeared in the sporting pages, Brescia Calcio confirm what was stated on Thursday by director of sport Gianluca Nani,” read a statement.

“Serse Cosmi, without any shadow of doubt, will be Brescia’s Coach for the upcoming season.”
