Club take on West Ham in their second final of a season so packed the manager has not been able to pay his dinner debt
Fiorentina’s players have been waiting two months for their manager to buy them dinner. Vincenzo Italiano promised to take them out as a thank you for their win away at Inter at the start of April. He had never before tasted victory at San Siro in his 30 combined years playing and coaching in Italy.
The only problem was finding a free evening. Four days later, Fiorentina faced Cremonese in the first leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final. The following week, they were off on a Europa Conference League trip to Poznan. Sandwiched between was another Serie A game. If you will insist on going to the final of every cup you enter, you won’t get a lot of breaks.
