Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini revealed after the Rosanero’s last game of the Serie A season that coach
Davide Ballardini had communicated his decision to quit the club.
The Sicilians’ went on to hire former Catania boss Walter Zenga last week, but Ballardini has painted a different picture in an interview with the Giornale di Sicilia.
“I just brought to the President’s attention that the man comes before the tactician,” he stated.
“And I did not approve of some of his insults and public statements. Respect comes before anything else. I never uttered the word ‘resignation’ and should I receive their letter, I don’t see why I should step down.
“I am where I was ten days ago. I haven’t heard from the club. If anything, it’s the President who moved way forward by announcing Zenga’s appointment.”
Zamparini often belittled the coach for his tactical choices during the season, despite the Rosanero narrowly missing out on a place in Europe.
Ballardini is now said to be in talks to take over from Delio Rossi at Lazio, but he has rejected press speculation.
“I have not held meetings with other clubs. I am on holiday…” he concluded.
