Ranieri pretends to coach the "Fiorentina" club © EuroFootball.com

Claudio Ranieri is the main candidate to become the new head coach of the club.

This season, "Viola" started with Sinisa Mihajlovičius as the coach, but later the Serbian was replaced by Delio Rossi, who was later dismissed after a clash with one of the team's players, and is temporarily replaced by Vincenzo Guerini.

According to "Corriere dello Sport", "Fiorentina" has already started negotiations with Ranieri, who was in charge of Inter Milan earlier this season.

However, there are other candidates as well - Rafael Benitez, Gian Piero Gasperini, Marcelo Bielsa, and Zdenek Zeman are also mentioned.
