The Biancazzurri boss resigned from his post before his side’s Europa League second-leg tie against Atletico Madrid; Igli Tare also spoke on the manager’s decision.
Edy Reja failed to rebuff reports of his resignation from the Lazio post during the press conference at Estadio http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon recently.
His resignation was not accepted by the Lazio board, and their Director of Communications addressed the press that they will have a meeting on Friday to discuss Reja’s predicament.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 boss has revealed that he might re-consider his resignation depending on the guarantees provided to him by the club.
While talking to the reporters, Edy Reja said,
“I have sent a letter to the club and I am now waiting for them to respond. I’ll talk to President Claudio Lotito and then we’ll see.”
The tactician commented that he will consider reversing his decision if the elements that persuaded his resignation were to change.
The manager reportedly had a feud with club Sporting Director, Igli Tare, after he mismanaged his transfer plans in the winter market. The mismanagement led to Djibril Cisse moving to Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314
from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nilmar-c28044, from CSKA Moscow and Villarreal respectively. This, piled on with Reja’s injury worries led to a lot of frustration in the manager’s mind, leading to his resignation.
Several names have been linked with the capital side, with former Biancazzurri favourite http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bruno-c8098 Giordano and Catania boss Vincenzo Montella touted as possible replacements for the veteran Italian.
Giordano has made his services available for the club and stated his desire to be the next coach for Le Aquile.
Tare has also spoken out and has stated that Reja might stay at the Biancocelesti; the Lazio director was quoted as saying:
“I think he could stay. All this talk about different Coaches coming in is just speculation. There will now be a meeting with Reja and I don’t think it will be a tense one.”
The higher management will hold crunch talks over the manager’s future at Stadio Olimpico Rome on Friday.
