Pippo Inzaghi has officially parted company with Pisa after just one year where he took the club to promotion into Serie A.

The former Milan, Venezia, Bologna, Benevento, Brescia and Salernitana boss took the job last summer and steered them to second place in Serie B.

That meant automatic promotion along with Sassuolo, while Cremonese got the third spot via the play-offs.

Inzaghi walks away from Pisa success

After 23 wins, seven draws and eight defeats, Inzaghi decided to leave Pisa regardless of their step up to the top flight.

According to multiple reports, he will remain in Serie B and be appointed the new coach of Palermo, as the Sicilian side paid the €1m clause to release him from his Pisa contract.

Inzaghi turns 52 in August and had already earned promotion from Serie B with Benevento in 2020.

As for Pisa, they are back in Serie A after an absence of 34 years and the candidates to take over next season include Alberto Gilardino.

Curiously, newly-promoted Cremonese are also currently without a coach.
