Parma: ‘Better to fire Cuesta after a victory, Gilardino earned this chance’

Parma CEO Federico Cherubini explains why they fired Carlos Cuesta, giving Alberto Gilardino his debut against Inter. ‘It was better to split when things were still going relatively well.’ It kicks off at San Siro at 17.00 UK time (18.00 CEST).

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s three Serie A games on the Liveblog. The Ducali make their debut under new coach Gilardino, having somewhat surprisingly sacked Cuesta during the long break for international duty.

It came after a 2-1 victory over Genoa, having scraped one point from the previous four rounds.
