How did Panucci's dismissal happen? Everything Discovered

After 15 matches at the helm of Albania, Duka has decided to discontinue co-operation with the Italian coach. On the morning of yesterday, the FSHF also announced Italian departure.

The Albanian Football Fund reports today that it has officially interrupted co-operation with coach Christian Panucci. We thank Coach Panucci for the work done so far and wish him success in continuing career”, wrote yesterday the FSHF's official website during yesterday morning.

Last appointment

The outcome of the match with Turkey has also been the end of the 45-year-old coach's adventure. Panorama Sport has also learned the coach's backstages from Albania. It's about a meeting in the early hours of Saturday morning, between National coach and FSHF President Armand Duka. He has gone to the representative's residence in Durres around 0400 a.m., where he has also communicated to the coach the decision to cut off co-operation. It is learned that Duke has offered an Italian pact to be at the helm of Albania and Monday's meeting of Andorra, which is the last to lead the National and then have a Panucci resignation.

Rejection

As he stated at the official conference in “Loro Borici”, following the match with Turkey, even at a meeting with Duka, Panucci has refused to resign. At any moment, the Italian has avoided the possibility of withdrawing from the national direction, leaving no other option for Armand Duka but his dismissal. Although in October 2018 the Italian expressed himself at one of the press conferences, he would be willing to leave Albania immediately if President Duka wanted to leave.
