Domenico Tedesco’s Bologna spell has come to an early end, with the coach returning to Casteldebole on Tuesday morning to say farewell after only two effective months in charge. His departure leaves Raffaele Palladino to take over the work on the training ground, with his first session scheduled for 16:00.
Tedesco leaves Bologna after a brief stay
Tedesco arrived at Bologna’s technical centre at 08:53 and left shortly after 10:15 following his final meeting with the club. Speaking from his car as he departed, the former Bologna coach kept the details of those discussions private.
“What was said between the club and me will stay between us,” he said. “I can only say that this city welcomed me wonderfully, and I would have liked to stay longer.”
The coach appeared outwardly composed, although he made clear that the separation had affected him. “I am very, very sorry,” he said. “What happened? Nothing specific. It is football. I may look calm, but that is only on the outside.”
Tedesco also spoke warmly of the connection between Bologna, its supporters and the squad. He had experienced the Stadio Dall’Ara on only two occasions during his short tenure, yet described the atmosphere as exceptional and praised the feeling surrounding the team across the city.
“These people deserve a great deal,” he added. “The atmosphere in the stadium and around the side in the city is something special. I sincerely thank everyone for the way they received me.”
Asked whether he had regrets over the squad’s construction, Tedesco declined to expand, saying that he had already expressed what he wanted to say. He then smiled, offered his goodbyes and left Casteldebole, closing a brief chapter before the season’s next turn under Palladino.
