Cremonese market: possible new turnaround after Sunday’s 0-0 lunch game

Cremonese’s position in the standings becomes more and more precarious as it is engaged in the lunchtime match with Torino and does not go further than 0-0 (in the second half a goal was annulled to Baschirotto after the Var intervention), putting only a small point in the pot. The duel with Lecce therefore continues, taking it for granted by now that Verona and Pisa are destined to leave the top flight, but it is not certain that Marco Giampaolo will still be on the bench at the next fixture. The Abruzzese coach, who has collected only one draw in the last three matches, may have to return the helm to Davide Nicola.

A disappointing performance, that of the grigiorossi, which clashes with the expectations placed on Giampaolo’s arrival. The coach had been called on March 18 to replace Nicola himself, who was exonerated after the heavy 1-4 loss at home against Fiorentina. The start had been promising: on their first outing, on March 21 at the Tardini, Cremonese had defeated Parma with a net 2-0, thanks to goals by Maleh and Vandeputte in the second half. Since then, however, the path has become increasingly uphill, with only one draw collected in the next three matches.

Already in the past few hours, the website calciocremonese.it had reported the club’s strong discontent, disappointed by a change of pace that never materialized at the most delicate moment of the season. The management is carefully monitoring the evolution of events, ready to evaluate every possible solution to avoid relegation.

In this scenario, according to Cuoregrigiorosso’s report, the hypothesis of a return of Davide Nicola, who could be recalled together with his staff to lead the team in the last decisive matches, is gaining more and more importance. It would not be a new face, but a coach already known by the Cremonese environment: a choice dictated by urgency and the need to rely on someone who already knows the group and the dynamics of the club.
