Catania appoint Giampaolo as coach

Catania have named former Siena boss Marco Giampaolo as their new coach.

The 42-year-old, sacked by Siena in October as the Tuscan outfit headed for relegation from Serie A, has signed a one-year deal in Sicily.

The former Ascoli and Cagliari coach replaces Sinisa Mihajlovic, who surprisingly resigned last week after comfortably securing top flight safety last term.

The Serb said he wanted to manage a bigger team and has held talks with Fiorentina while media reports have also linked him with Inter.
